Moscow is looking into the potential of Ukraine’s participation in Monday’s blast, which killed Russian Lieutenant General Fanil Sarvarov.

Sarvarov, born March 11, 1969, was the Head of the Operational Training Directorate at the Russian Armed Forces’ General Staff.

Svetlana Petrenko, a spokeswoman for the Russian Investigative Committee, confirmed his death after an explosion in southern Moscow early Monday.

According to preliminary findings, an explosive device hidden beneath a parked car was detonated on Yasenevaya Street in Moscow.

Petrenko stated that authorities are examining numerous possibilities on the blast, “one of them is that the crime was organized by the Ukrainian security agencies.”

Moscow has filed a criminal case under Part 2 of Article 105 of the Criminal Code (murder in a socially harmful manner) and Article 222.1 (illegal trafficking in explosives).

Sarvarov participated in the planning and conduct of military operations in Syria (2015-2016), and he was later appointed Head of the General Staff’s Operational Training Directorate.

He was born in Gremyachinsk, Russia’s Perm Region, and rose through the ranks of the military, winning numerous honors.

The deceased was awarded the Order of Courage, the Suvorov Medal, and the Order of Merit to the Fatherland, first and second class.

Dmitry Peskov, a Kremlin spokesperson, confirmed that President Vladimir Putin is aware of the event, which is one of several targeted strikes over the last year.

Lieutenant General Yaroslav Moskalik was killed in April 2025 by a car bomb in a town near Moscow. He served as the Deputy Head of the General Staff’s Main Operations Directorate.

Lt. Gen. Igor Kirillov, then the head of Russia’s Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical Protection Troops, was killed in Moscow in December 2024 when an electric scooter exploded due to a bomb planted inside.

In November 2024, a bomb buried beneath a car killed Valery Trankovsky, a Russian navy commander, in Sevastopol, Russia-annexed Crimea.

In October 2024, Andrei Korotkiy, a worker at the Russian-controlled Zaporizhzhia nuclear power station in Ukraine, was killed in a car bomb.
