Lt Gen Vladimir Alexeyev, Russia's deputy head of military intelligence, was shot multiple times in Moscow but has regained consciousness after surgery. Two suspects have been arrested, and Russian officials blame Ukraine for the attack, which Ukraine denies. Alexeyev, who has a significant military background, was ambushed in his apartment block. Investigators have opened a criminal case for attempted murder, and the incident is part of a series of attacks on high-ranking military figures in Russia since the invasion of Ukraine.
