WorldFSB says it detained suspect in attempted murder of Russian general
Russia’s FSB says it detained 21-year-old Moldovan citizen Nicolae Kochu over the attempted killing of a Russian serviceman in Saratov region on September 3. The serviceman survived six gunshots; unofficial reports identify him as Major General Nikolai Varpakhovich, whom Ukraine accuses of ordering the strike on Kyiv’s Okhmatdyt children’s hospital. The FSB claims Ukrainian intelligence recruited and trained Kochu, while Meduza notes the circumstances of the released interrogation video are unclear.
