A high-profile Russian defense executive is fighting for his life after a targeted car bombing.
The explosive device detonated beneath a Mercedes carrying Vladimir Tkachuk, the head of defense contractor Uraldronzavod, near the major Urals industrial hub of Yekaterinburg, roughly 870 miles east of Moscow.
The powerful blast instantly killed Tkachuk’s driver, who also served as his bodyguard, while leaving the drone boss in grave condition. Emergency medical crews rushed Tkachuk to an intensive care unit, where doctors are currently battling to keep him alive following the late-night attack.
