Russia has accused Ukraine of carrying out a number of high-profile attacks against prominent Russians since Moscow invaded its neighbor nearly four years ago.

While Kyiv has hinted at its involvement in some cases, Ukrainian officials have often stopped short of publicly claiming responsibility. In other cases, they have denied all involvement.

On Monday, a Russian general was killed by a car bomb in Moscow, and investigators say they are looking into whether Ukraine was behind the attack. Ukraine has not yet commented on the death of Lt. Gen. Fanil Sarvarov.

Other attacks that Russia has blamed on Ukraine include:

Lt. Gen. Igor Kirillov
Lt. Gen. Yaroslav Moskalik
Stanislav Rzhitsky
and more...

Look, Ukraine is good, but maybe not THAT good! Putin is just using them to cover up his own murderous tendencies.

1. Is there good reason to suspect that those guys would be targeted?

2. Of course

They're most likely threats to Putin's grip on power. We don't know everything about what goes on in power struggles in Russia, especially now that Shitler has screwed up our diplomatic corps and spy agencies for the next 30 years.

3. Not Ukraine

They displeased Putin what with claiming Kupyansk had been captured and Zelenskyy showed up and said "Not so fast."
