Three Suspects Named in Moscow Attack on GRU General

Russia has identified three suspects in the shooting of Lt Gen Vladimir Alexeyev in Moscow, with Lyubomir Korba, a Ukrainian-born Russian citizen, named as the alleged attacker likely acting on Ukrainian intelligence leads. Korba reportedly travelled to the UAE hours after the attack and has been arrested and extradited. Investigators say he had at least one accomplice, Viktor Vasin, who was arrested, and a woman, Zinaida Serebritskaya, believed to be involved. A silenced Makarov pistol was recovered at the scene. Kyiv has denied involvement, while Russia’s Kremlin and Defence Ministry note cooperation with UAE authorities in the case.
