Russian security forces say they have detained a Ukrainian spy accused of killing a senior Russian general in a car bomb attack on Friday.
The Kremlin blamed Ukraine for the death of 59-year-old Yaroslav Moskalik, deputy head of the Main Operations Directorate of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces. Kyiv has not officially commented on Moskalik’s death.
