Edition No134 | 25-04-2025 - Lieutenant General Yaroslav Moskalik has been killed in a car bomb attack near Moscow. The most likely suspect for this highly targeted assassination is Ukraine. The elimination of Lieutenant General Yaroslav Moskalik follows that of another senior Russian military figure, Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, in December. In that incident, a bomb hidden on an electric scooter parked outside his apartment building exploded as he left for his office. In the latest blast, Moskalik was apparently killed by an explosive device placed in his car in Balashikha, just outside the capital. He was a deputy head of the main operational department in the General Staff of the Russian armed forces.The committee investigating his death have not mentioned potential suspects, but spokesperson Svetlana Petrenko stated that the explosive device was rigged with shrapnel. Russian authorities blamed Ukraine for the killing of Kirillov, and some time later Ukraine's security agency acknowledged it was behind that attack. It’s worth noting that enemy combatants are legitimate targets of war. There is no distinction if they are killed on Russian soil, or occupied territory. This would only constitute a war crime if passersby and civilians had been indiscriminately targeted or consciously put in danger. But both the attacks mentioned in this report were extremely surgical and targeted. Both targets eliminated were also serving members of Russia’s armed forces, with close connections to Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine and seizure of its sovereign territory. ----------LINKS:https://news.sky.com/story/russian-general-killed-in-car-bomb-attack-near-moscow-13355393https://www.standard.co.uk/news/world/putin-general-killed-car-bomb-explosion-russia-moscow-b1224241.htmlhttps://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2025/apr/25/steve-witkoff-moscow-vladimir-putin-volodymyr-zelenskyy-russia-ukraine-peace-plan-talks-europe-latest-updates-newshttps://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/ukraine-russian-general-killed-moscow-trump-putin-b2739620.html----------Easter Pysanky: Silicon Curtain - https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/easter-pysanky-silicon-curtainCar for Ukraine has joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this special Easter season.
