The Investigative Committee of Russia and the FSB announced the arrest of the suspect in the murder of the head of the radiation, chemical and biological defense forces of the Russian Armed Forces, Lieutenant General Igor Kyrylov and his assistant.

According to Russian special services, this is a citizen of Uzbekistan.

The FSB claims that he was recruited by the Ukrainian special services. The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation stated that the detainee was promised to pay 100,000 dollars.

The report of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation claims that the suspect planted a bomb on an electric scooter parked at the entrance of the house where the general lived, and also rented a car where he installed a surveillance camera on Igor Kirillov. The filming was allegedly broadcast to the organizers of the explosion in Dnipro.

After receiving a video signal of Kyrylov leaving the entrance with an assistant, the explosive device was remotely activated, the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation said.

The head of the radiation, chemical and biological defense forces of the Russian armed forces, Lieutenant General Igor Kyrylov and his assistant Ilya Polikarpov died on December 17 as a result of an explosion in Moscow, the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation reported.

The explosion occurred in the early hours of December 17 near the house where Kyrylov lived. According to the version of the investigation, the explosive device was planted in a scooter standing next to the entrance. Russian investigators have opened a criminal case under articles of terrorist attack, murder and illegal trafficking of weapons and ammunition.

A source in the Security Service of Ukraine told RFE/RL that the explosion that killed Kyrylov was a SBU special operation. Officially, the Security Service did not announce this.

On December 16, the Security Service of Ukraine accused General Kyrylov of committing crimes in absentia. According to the SBU, he is responsible for the use of chemical weapons against Ukrainian servicemen.
