Lieutenant-General Igor Anatolyevich Kirillov was appointed Head of the Russian Army's Radiation, Chemical and Biological Protection Troops in April 2017.[1]
On 17 December 2024, Igor Kirillov and an aide were reported to have been killed by explosives planted in an electric scooter, which was blown up as he left the building he lived in on Ryazansky Prospekt in south-eastern Moscow.[2]
Activities
In March 2022, he said that laboratories in Ukraine funded by the US military were making biological weapons components, but that local staff was being kept in the dark about their research. These facilities were chosen by the US Department of Defense's Threat Reduction Administration (DTRA), and the contractor Black and Veatch.[3] He also said Ukraine was developing drones containing thousands of mosquitoes carrying infectious diseases.[4]
OPCW
Regarding the 2018 Douma false flag attack, Kirilov pointed out that the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), which has the mandate to investigate such allegations, was compromised by Western influence.[5]
Skripal affair
Regarding the 2018 Skripal affair, Kirillov pointed out that Novichok could be made by a number of nations, including the UK, that have chemical weapons programs of their own with enough expertise to synthesise highly lethal compounds.<ref name=rt>
Perpetrators
Of relevance is that the UK has an operation called Project Alchemy, a Gladio-style network of Ukrainian operatives, created to carry out sabotage and assassinations inside Russia.
