The Ukrainian official stated that Lt. Gen. Igor Kirillov was a 'legitimate target' due to his role in orchestrating the use of banned weapons against Ukraine.
The explosion occurred when an explosive device on a parked scooter detonated near a residential building, leading to the deaths of Kirillov and his assistant.
Ukrainian intelligence, known as the SBU, claimed responsibility for the special operation to eliminate Kirillov, highlighting his controversial role in Russia's military actions.
Kirillov had previously spread misinformation regarding U.S. biowarfare labs in Ukraine, further complicating the narrative surrounding biological and chemical warfare.
