Stanislav Rzhitsky, a Russian military officer previously in charge of a Black Sea submarine and listed as an alleged war criminal on a Ukrainian website, was assassinated during a morning run in Krasnodar. A suspect, found with a firearm and silencer, was arrested by Russia’s state Investigative Committee, but Ukraine has not claimed responsibility for the attack.
  

Key Points: 

  1. Rzhitsky was assassinated during his morning run; the unidentified assailant shot him seven times with a Makarov pistol. His details, including his image, had appeared on a Ukrainian site that catalogs alleged enemies of the state.
  2. Russia’s state Investigative Committee arrested a suspect in his early 60s who was found with a pistol and silencer. A video was published showing the man’s arrest.
  3. Ukrainian military intelligence published information about Rzhitsky’s murder on their website without claiming responsibility or revealing the information source.
  4. Some believe the killer tracked Rzhitsky’s jogging route and timing via an app where he posted this information.
  5. Rzhitsky had been accused, without evidence, by pro-Ukraine factions of involvement in a deadly submarine-launched missile attack in Ukraine in July 2022. He had reportedly resigned from the military by the end of 2021.
