Thursday, December 25, 2025 - A deadly explosion occurred on Wednesday, 24 December after police officers approached a suspicious individual in a location near the site of a high-profile military assassination that took place earlier this week.
According to the State Investigative Committee, two law
enforcement officers were killed by an explosive device while attempting to
intercept a man acting strangely.
A third person also died in the blast, though official
sources have not yet confirmed the identity of that individual.
Criminal cases have been opened regarding the murder of law
enforcement officers and the illegal trafficking of explosives.
Residents in the area reported a powerful blast that shook
nearby buildings. One witness described the sound as a "loud bang,"
comparing it to the explosion that occurred in the same vicinity just two days
prior.
This incident took place very close to the location where a
senior general, the head of the army operational training directorate for the
General Staff, was killed by a car bomb on Monday. While there has been no
official comment from external governments, the frequency of attacks on
military figures has increased over the nearly four-year-old conflict.
Unofficial reports suggest the individual approached by
police may have been the bomber, detonating the device as the officers closed
in. These details remain under investigation.
