Two individuals are soon to be interrogated in connection with the attempted murder of General-Lieutenant Vladimir Aleksejev, who was shot last Friday in Moscow. The Russian newspaper Kommersant reports that charges against the suspects will be filed following these interrogations, although there has not been an official announcement from Russia regarding their arrest.

The shooting of Aleksejev is part of a troubling trend, as several senior Russian military officials have been murdered since the onset of the war in Ukraine, with Russia consistently accusing Ukraine of being behind these attacks. This incident raises questions about the internal security of the Russian military and the potential involvement of outside forces in attacks against its high-ranking officials.

As the situation develops, the implications for Russian military operations and morale could be significant, especially amidst ongoing conflicts and political pressures exacerbated by the war in Ukraine. The lack of transparency in the Russian government's handling of these investigations could further complicate public perception of its military leadership and their effectiveness.
