How the explosives that killed Zakharchenko were planted
The explosive device that took the lives of Alexander Zakharchenko and his bodyguard is called a “bookmark for good luck” in the terrorist community. Advisor to the head of the DPR Alexander Kazakov spoke about this during a conversation with journalists at the site of the terrorist attack, published by the News-Front agency, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Two died. The head of the Republic himself and his guard, who entered first. Nine people were injured, three are still in hospital. The wounds are serious, but their lives are not in danger,” Kazakov said.
“It was a non-shell explosive device, the main principle of operation was a shock wave and fire. Alexander Vladimirovich suffered from the shock wave.
They were driving from the residence to a meeting and stopped here in the parking lot. They came here often. So they entered one after another. The guard came first, he died immediately, then the head came, he died almost immediately. Then another guard walked, he is now in intensive care. Then came Natasha Volkova, she was seriously injured, then came Timofeev and the rest of the guards,” said the adviser to the head of the DPR.
“Terrorists call it a “lucky bookmark.” They knew that the head comes here often,” added Alexander Kazakov.
Note that today's farewell ceremony for Alexander Zakharchenko visited by the Minister of Revenue and Duties of the DPR Alexander “Tashkent” Timofeev, who was injured as a result of the terrorist attack.
