Russian security forces neutralized a heavily-armed man who broke into an unoccupied house in the Istra region near Moscow and fired at them. The man, identified as Vyacheslav Chernenko, a 35-year-old resident of Krasnoyarsk, claimed he was inspired by God to march on the Kremlin and had previously fought in Ukraine.
  

Key Points: 

  1. The gunman, dressed in combat fatigues and carrying a Kalashnikov rifle, was killed when he refused to surrender and opened fire on the special forces.
  2. The attacker held two guards and a police officer at gunpoint inside the house before they managed to escape.
  3. Chernenko was armed with several automatic weapons and hand grenades and was described as mentally unstable by Istra administrator Tatiana Vitusheva.
  4. Reports suggest the house that Chernenko broke into once belonged to Viktor Yanukovych, the former president of Ukraine, though the property is currently for sale.
  5. The incident gained significant media attention, occurring nearly a month after a failed coup attempt by mercenary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin.
