The shooting on Friday continues a string of attacks and assassinations of top Russian military officers in Moscow. Lt. Gen. Vladimir Alekseyev provided intelligence to the Kremlin for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and had been penalized by the U.S. twice, including for meddling in elections.

The general’s condition was not immediately clear. The investigators said that the attacker had managed to escape.
