Head Of Russia’s Nuclear Defense Forces Killed In Moscow Bombing, Ukraine Takes Credit For Involvement
A view of the blast scene, which killed the commander of Russian armed
forces’ chemical, biological and radiation defence troops, Igor
Kirillov, and his assistant, according to the Russian Investigative
Committee, outside a residential building on Ryazansky Avenue in Moscow
on December 17, 2024.
After Ukraine accused Russia of using banned chemical weapons on the
battlefield, the director of Russia’s Nuclear, Chemical, and Biological
weapons defense unit was murdered on Tuesday in a bombing outside a
Moscow apartment building.
Russian media outlets claim that “the bomb was detonated remotely and contained anywhere from 300g to 1kg of explosives,” the BBC reported.
Additionally, other surfacing reports stated that the bomb was strategically planted in an electric scooter.
Igor Kirillov, 54, was “found guilty of war crimes on Monday by
Ukraine’s top internal security agency, the SBU,” for employing “banned
chemical weapons” against Ukrainian soldiers engaged in combat.
Despite Kyiv not “formally” taking credit for the murder, a Ukrainian law enforcement official told the outlet Politico that the SBU was directly involved in the assassination, according to Forbes.
“Kirillov was a war criminal and an absolutely legitimate target
since he gave orders to use banned chemical weapons against the
Ukrainian military…Retribution for war crimes is inevitable,” the
Ukrainian official, who wished to remain anonymous, told the outlet.
Meanwhile, Douglas Macgregor, a retired U.S. Army Colonel Combat
Veteran and a former advisor to the Secretary of Defense, posted on X in
regards to the news. However, his claims have not yet been confirmed.
BREAKING:
Rumors emerging that NATO and the CIA were heavily involved in the
assassination of top Russian General Igor Kirillov in Ukraine.
In October, Kirillov and other Russian government officials were also
sanctioned by the U.K. government for purportedly using chemical
weapons against Ukrainian forces. Kirillov was subject to an asset
freeze and a travel ban as part of the sentence.
U.K. officials commented on the news of the assassination.
“Kirillov has also been a significant mouthpiece for Kremlin
disinformation, spreading lies to mask Russia’s shameful and dangerous
behavior,” the British Foreign Office stated.
Additionally, a slew of other social media users chimed in and expressed their own theories on X.
This is the fatal attack on Russian General Igor Kirillov in Moscow last night. Allegedly by Ukraine
He was the primary person claiming the US had biolabs in Ukraine. He was also in charge of their nuclear protection
However, The Intercept, a politically far-left outlet, according to theAllSides political bias meter,claimed in 2022 that ten Russian biologists came out against their own government and argued otherwise.
“10 Russian biologists, including researchers who remain in Russia,
have publicly accused the Russian government of lying about having proof
that biological weapons were being developed in Ukrainian labs funded
by the United States.
According to the biologists, documents presented to the public last
week by Russia’s defense ministry as supposed evidence of ‘bioweapons
labs’ under Pentagon control in Ukraine actually describe relatively
harmless collections of pathogens used for public health research,” The Interceptreported.
