A car belonging to a former Russian penal service officer accused by Ukraine of torturing prisoners of war was blown up in the town of Novomoskovsk, in Russia's Tula region, on October 2, according to the Ukrainian monitoring Telegram channel Exilenova+.
The channel described the vehicle's owner as a participant in the war against Ukraine and reported the incident, though it was not independently verified in the available reporting.
No official Russian confirmation of the incident, nor details on casualties or the identity of the vehicle's owner, were included in the available reporting. Similar reported attacks on individuals accused of involvement in the war have occurred periodically inside Russia since the conflict began.
