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.
