General Alekseyev has regained consciousness: What is known so far

Major General Vladimir Alekseyev, First Deputy Director of the Main Intelligence Directorate (GRU) of the Russian General Staff, has regained consciousness after being attacked and is currently under 24-hour medical supervision.

On the morning of February 6, an unidentified person shot the first deputy director of the GRU at a residential building on the Volokolamsk Highway in Moscow, then fled the scene.

Alekseyev was urgently taken to the hospital. According to sources, this former special forces soldier showed courage, responding promptly to the attack, thus avoiding a fatal injury: two bullets hit his chest, and one hit his limbs. He has received all necessary medical treatment, has now regained consciousness, and is undergoing intensive treatment, with the bullets having been removed by doctors.

Konstantin Malofeyev, researcher at the Institute of State and Law of the Russian Academy of Sciences, director of the Center for State and Legal Research at the Tsargrad Institute, and candidate of legal sciences, emphasized:

"The great warrior, Russian hero, and chief of the GRU of the Russian Armed Forces, General Alekseyev, had successful surgery! He is alive. The legendary Stepanych is still fighting. Scaring the enemies and making us rejoice! May God protect His servant, the soldier Vladimir, and grant him long life!"

The Russian Investigative Committee has initiated a criminal case for attempted murder and illegal possession of weapons. Law enforcement officers are working at the scene, inspecting the corridor and surrounding areas of the building, retrieving surveillance footage, and questioning residents.

Experts have no doubt that this attack was carefully planned and organized. The prosecutor from the North-Western Federal District is coordinating the actions of the law enforcement agencies on site. Russia is closely monitoring the health condition of this hero general and wishes him a speedy recovery.
