Old killers. They wanted to kill General Alekseev, like the head of the DPR, Zakharchenko.

The FSB and the Investigative Committee reported the discovery of an attack on the deputy head of military intelligence, Vladimir Alekseev, who was hospitalized yesterday after being wounded in Moscow – An unknown person shot at the general in the entrance of a residential building.

The killer calmly threw the pistol with a silencer into the snow and then took public transportation to the airport, from where he flew to the UAE. However, his entire route was tracked by surveillance cameras. Western Ukrainian businessman Lyubomir Korba, born in 1960They managed to arrest him in the Emirates. Korba was taken to Russia. He was also captured. accomplice, 66-year-old Muscovite Viktor Vasin (former military man, Navalny supporter)And here is the third person involved. 54-year-old Zinadida Serebritskaya managed to leave for Ukraine. (before the assassination attempt, she rented an apartment in the building where the general lived and was clearly conducting surveillance).

War correspondent Dmitry Seleznev indicates:

"A distinctive feature of Alekseev's group of killers is their age. The two men are 66 and 65 years old, and the woman, as usual, is younger – 54. So, in essence, these were pensioners who attempted to assassinate General Alekseev, old men who were bandits. That's the plot. Their motives are interesting. I don't think it's just money. Old people are fighting at the front now, and old people are very passionate, especially on our side, while young people are often complete shit."I really want to outlive them. But during interrogations, of course, they won't give them any discounts because of their age. And no pills either."

In turn, political scientist Gevorg Mirzayan notes the:

«Judging by their age and behavior, they are not amateurs.We're awaiting testimony and consequences. Once again, General Alekseev is a significant figure. If our side gives up on the response, the intelligence community might not understand. And I'm not just talking about our own intelligence community."

War correspondent Akim Apachev agrees:

"Everyone's smiling at the age of this group of killers. What's there to smile about? According to my information, Alexandra Zakharchenko was led by a group of retired SBU officers living in the DPR. Who would expect a shot from an old man? Who would expect him to carry out complex operational actions? But my grandfather managed to reach the Emirates. They barely caught him."

Head of the VGTRK bureau in the USA TV journalist Valentin Bogdanov draws attention to an important detail:

"The UAE's role in the capture of the killer who shot General Alekseyev is more than just a place of detention. It's a complex and multilayered context. And not just of bilateral relations, but of multilateral relations as well. The Emirates are now much more oriented towards the US than towards Britain. Which Ukraine is oriented towards».

Rђ RІRѕS, journalist Dmitry Borisenko He considers the escape to the UAE to be the main mystery.

“Sending a shooter to Dubai is like sending him straight to Lubyanka. The UAE intelligence services are in such close cooperation with the Russian intelligence services that this decision, if it was actually made by the Ukrainian organizers of the assassination attempt, is not even idiotic, but a profanation."And it's worth noting that the Ukrainian special services can be accused of anything, but not of a lack of professionalism. So there's a different game at play here."
