The director of an intercontinental ballistic missile factory was detained in Krasnoyarsk

Alexander Gavrilov, director of the Krasnoyarsk Machine-Building Plant (“Krasmash”), has been detained in Krasnoyarsk, Russia; his company manufactures intercontinental ballistic missiles.

This was reported by NGS24.

According to sources, Gavrilov has been in pretrial detention since late April on embezzlement charges.

Meanwhile, Ivan Petrov, a member of the Krasnoyarsk City Council, citing his own sources, stated that the plant’s director is suspected of accepting a bribe of three million rubles.

The Investigative Committee stated that it has no information regarding this case. The Ministry of Internal Affairs and the FSB did not comment on the detention, and the company itself declined to provide any explanation.

As a reminder, on the night of May 4, a drone struck a building on Mosfilmovskaya Street in Moscow. Mayor Sergei Sobyanin confirmed the attack and reported that there were no casualties. 

In Tuapse, residents were urged to evacuate following a drone attack (video).

Residents of Tuapse, Russia, are increasingly complaining about the unbearable living conditions in the frontline city. The once-popular resort has turned into an area of environmental disaster and constant danger due to regular explosions at local industrial facilities.
