The car of the head of a drone company explodes in Russia: the driver is dead, he is very serious.

An explosion caused by a bomb placed under the Mercedes of Vladimir Tkachuk, CEO of Uraldronzavod, a Russian company producing military drones, occurred near Ekaterinburg. The blast destroyed the vehicle, killing Tkachuk’s driver and bodyguard while seriously injuring Tkachuk himself, who is now in intensive care. Tkachuk is known for developing the 'Upyr,' a low-cost kamikaze drone used by the Russian military in Ukraine, and for running a Telegram channel that raises funds for Russian soldiers. He has been sanctioned by Western countries due to his involvement in war-related activities. Russian authorities have previously blamed Ukraine for similar attacks against defense industry figures.
