Bomb Kills 2 Cops Near Moscow Site
There was a big explosion in a part of Moscow called southern Moscow.
Three people died, including two police officers and one other person.
This happened just two days after a important army leader, Lieutenant General Fanil Sarvarov, was killed by a car bomb.
People heard more explosions where the general was killed.
News agencies like Reuters and some Telegram channels reported this.
Russia said Ukraine might be behind the attacks, but Ukraine didn't say anything officially.
Some Ukrainian websites celebrated the general's death.
Three people, including two police officers, were killed in a bomb explosion in southern Moscow on Wednesday.
The blast occurred near the site where Lieutenant General Fanil Sarvarov was killed by a car bomb on Monday.
Russia's State Investigative Committee opened criminal cases for the murder of law enforcement officers and illegal trafficking of bombs.
Unofficial Russian Telegram news channels reported that the bomber was one of those killed and detonated the bomb when approached by the officers.
Ukrainian overnight drone attacks targeted Moscow and sparked an industrial fire in the Tula region, which lies directly south of the Russian capital, regional authorities said on Wednesday.
