The newest sufferer was one other senior officer referred to as Yaroslav Moskalik. He was a lieutenant basic, and deputy head of the principle operational division within the Basic Employees of Russia’s armed forces.

Russian authorities blamed Ukraine for the killing of Kirillov, and Ukraine’s safety company acknowledged that it was behind that assault.
