Ukraine's Intelligence Directorate Claims Assassination of Russian Missile Scientist Mikhail Shatsky in Moscow
Dec 12, 2024, 02:09 PM
Mikhail Shatsky, a key Russian missile modernization official at the Mars Design Bureau, was reportedly assassinated in Kuzminsky forest park, near Kotelniki, southeast of Moscow. Shatsky was involved in upgrading Kh-59 cruise missiles to the Kh-69 level, used in strikes against Ukraine, and was a proponent of integrating artificial intelligence into Russian drones and other aerospace technologies. Ukrainian intelligence services, specifically Ukraine's Main Intelligence Directorate, have claimed responsibility for the killing, citing Shatsky's role in the development of Russian military technology as justification. No arrests have been made, and no official Russian statement has been released regarding the incident.
