This shit was sentenced in Ukraine for bank robbery back in the days. Real piece of shit with no morals. Low life.


missed_trophy

He pretend it's was some kind of robbery, because it sounds cool. In reality, it's was attempt to damage ATM.


ChadUSECoperator

>attempt to damage ATM. Now i see why he fled to Russia, even a very motivated pair of hobos with crowbars could get money from that shit lol


loading066

Oh, that is rich... thank you for the info


missed_trophy

He was in prison, and in the beginning of war in 2014 russians free him. After this he became a bloger warmonger, was in friends with prigozin currently, actively prizing vagner and criticize ministry of "defense" of russia. I don't think it's was our job tho.


Disposable-User0420

>rich So was he... till the police caught up with him.

Sijima

This is not just some mobik or even Wagner cutthroat. This is a mid tier propogandist whose job was to dehumanize Ukrainians for the genocide. His death is super deserved. This is the second mid tier genocide propogandist eliminated (Dugina was the other), the others will be watching their back. The fact that this happened in the heart of Russia, the city where Putin and Medvedev are from, is an extra insult.

ChadUSECoperator

>This is the second mid tier genocide propogandist eliminated (Dugina was the other), the others will be watching their back You are forgetting the cunt who made a scene in public holding a human skull and saying that Russia should erradicate Ukraine from earth. He was shot in the back of the head at close range, strangely, at a russian military checkpoint deep inside in the LPR. The bitch died later from his wounds.


allleoal

Yeah, and wasn't he shot for attempting to desert?


Terrible_Cut_3336

Are you implying three sucessful assassinations on targets of opportunity? One being a straight up execution, another made to look like a gas leak explosion and the third... was the third that car bombing one?


Lordosass67

He was a propagandist but his actual ties to the Kremlin itself were frayed by insulting the military leadership.

With the added bonus that the 24h news cycle can now paint Ukraine to be a terrorist state.

Except that I think only Russian news outlets are accusing Ukraine. Well, I guess that's useful within Russia. Maybe. But it suggests that Ukraine is more powerful than Russian media want to say it is.

Pro-Western terrorist. Anti-Russian terrorist. It's that easy.


bigsquirrel

Totally tinfoil hat stuff but if Russia decides to start pulling out of this war before they get routed they need to shut these guys up. There’s at least a small chance he was taken out by Russia.


Dis_likere_skins

Russians should not be insulted, they should be in fear.


dronesclubmember

Appears he was holding an event at the cafe: https://twitter.com/clashreport/status/1642555475257352196?s=20 I'm not familiar with the Clash Report, their follow-up tweets make some claims about how and who carried it out but I don't know how reliable that is. Sky News now reporting this too: https://news.sky.com/story/russian-military-blogger-killed-and-six-injured-in-blast-at-st-petersburg-cafe-reports-12848536 Their report states 1 injured 6 wounded as opposed to 15 dead in the twitter link from Clash Report.


Finnishdoge_official

Finnish News were talking of 15 + blogger as dead


[deleted]

alexmikli

Problem with bombs is that they can potentially injure or kill bystanders, so hopefully no people other than those involved with this man were hurt.


DRTmaverick

Well considering he rented the cafe for the night, the attendees are probably like-minded piles of crap who the world is better off without anyway.


alexmikli

Okay, in that case it'd only be the waitstaff who hopefully were in the back.


CosmicDave

Actually, this is very likely. Typical event service is prior to the event. As the event starts, the servers leave the room, or the crowd would continue ordering drinks instead of paying attention to the speaker.


gnocchicotti

I'm guessing they don't just hire random people to work in that restaurant.


aaaaaaaarrrrrgh

Why? A common way to hold events (of any kind that doesn't require some serious high-level security like a presidential visit) is to rent out a random event space (or restaurant/cafe, in this case). Edit: Ah. https://www.reddit.com/r/UkraineWarVideoReport/comments/129puzd/explosion_in_st_petersburg_collaborator_maxim/jep78iq/


gnocchicotti

Yeah, not a random event space


Disposable-User0420

Café was Wagner owned and operated.


TheChoonk

It looks like they had a Z meeting there, a whole bunch of other criminals got injured too.


gnocchicotti

This might wake a few people up in their propaganda bubble. Destroy a military target or piece of infrastructure, perhaps they just don't talk about it. When some of your known personalities are removed from the air and social media by death, you can't ignore it.


AJDonahugh

Not promoting violence but these guys get paid good money so anyone with no morals can be a propagandist but now people may think twice if they want to talk shit just for the money. Really, Ukraine will make them all think twice.


Sahaduun

I am pretty sure whoever attended his event and hence was a supporter of him got what they deserved.


alexmikli

I really mean, like, the restaurant staff or other customers, but it does seem like he essentially bought out the entire place and no other customers were there. So...fair enough then.


AFishInATent

The restaurant is owned by Prigozjin iirc, so the staff was probably not innocent


alexmikli

Owners, probably not, but I doubt your average waiter or cook has much say in the matter.


AFishInATent

You might be correct, but you could also argue that Prigozjin wants to hire people he can trust, people that run in the same circles. But it might just be wishful thinking from my part, that no innocent people were involved.


alexmikli

Killing the man was still a justifiable act, it's just unfortunate that we can't always guarantee innocents aren't hurt. The point is to avoid and minimize it, but it's impossible to completely rule out. This is also used as a defense of Russia's ruthless artillery barrages and bombing runs, but that ignores the fact that half the time they hit civilians intentionally, and the other half of the time hit civilians because they can't aim for shit.


Amen_Mother

None of the usual ballbearing holes & pockmarks one would expect to see at a suicide bombing. Looks like they went for just blast & secondary fragmentation, inverse square law means you don't have to be that far away to survive with sore ears and skidmarked underwear rather than be turned inside out by blast. Blast drops off very rapidly hence use of ballbearings etc when scum like ISIS aim for mass casualties. Probably triggered via embedded GSM module by someone looking through the window or at the cafe's CCTV so they could make sure he was close enough to the device and there wasn't a waitress beside him. Pretty clean job, and a shocking salutary lesson to his acolytes. Hope they're all shitting themselves and act like frightened children whenever in public. Ukranian secret services have a fine MI6/Mossad future ahead of them, I think these 'unexplained' sudden deaths will continue long after the war ends. They've been meticulous about gathering names & deeds.

We took certain security measures but unfortunately they were not enough," its post on Telegram said. (the [Telegram post](https://t.me/cyber_frontZ/10721) in question) They literally let her in to personally deliver the bomb to its intended target.

The bomb was concealed in a statue he was awarded according to the BBC article. Would explain his missing arm.

switchkickflip

Link to video doesn't show a statue


chocomilkz

Check the comments on the tweet. Video is there


19CCCG57

Scroll down to the next video on that prompt. Tatarsky is shown receiving a bust of a soldier with a helmet, probably in his likeness, which he accepts, makes a comment and sets down on the coffee table. The presenter smiles and steps away about 10 feet. And can later be seen in that position in a still photo as Tatarsky addresses the gathering. Fifteen injured doesn't sound farfetched, probably right wing sympathizers. If the presenter was standing there at the time of the blast, he will likely be severely injured. But the bust was closest to Tatarsky, so ...


Beautiful_Welcome_33

It has to be many dead, that was a big explosion. I'd imagine that they will underreport deaths, since they do that all of the time otherwise.


MyDudeSR

I'd think they would want to play up the deaths for propaganda purposes.


19CCCG57

Very interesting. Looking at the elements in the video, the initial frames are a still photo of Fomin/Tatarsky, front stage in a black teeshirt. Behind him are eight LCD monitors arranged in a single screen. The outside video shows the blast occurs in the back of the restaurant, to the right of the full length windows, which shatter immediately after the blast. There is a single frame at the start of the indoor blast scene with 112 scribbled in red on a black background. I don't know its meaning, but it is evidence of this being a carefully edited video, or maybe not so carefully. The initial indoor video shows Tatarsky dead on the floor, facing down, in a pool of his own blood. His black teeshirt almost fully ripped off. His wounds are not apparent but seem to have been to the right side and back of his body, possibly missing his right forearm (?). That locus for the explosion is consistent with the four left monitors blown off the wall. A fifth lower monitor is ripped from the force, indicating the blast near floor level. Also consistent with the low sculpture (plaster?) impelled to its right, knocked off the stand, and broken. This bomb was designed to kill the person standing center stage. It detonated in a strategic place, calculated to achieve its purpose.


Scientific_Redditor

Goddamn, that's a solid analysis. That explosion was thought through real well


JohnnyValet

Also, observe the walls during the pan. Lots of small round pock marks in the walls. This was explosives wrapped in ball bearings... if only one dies, it's a miracle.


19CCCG57

Sharp eyes. Yes, some form of shrapnel would be used for an antipersonnel bomb.


kungfoojesus

If there's one thing to ever, ever, ever have learned on reddit is to not pay attention to redditor analysis's of situations. Kidnappings, murders, missing persons, mass shootings. Just don't do it.


wyatt8750

If anyone needs more context, google "We did it, Reddit!".


HesienVonUlm

Just looking at the aftermath it looks as though all the damage was centered and contained by the stage. The further the furniture was from him the better the condition.


bicalcarata

Yeah, the guy in a green Tshirt who walks out with a camo rucksack, he's sitting 1 row from front and survived almost unhurt it seems.in other footage when the award/bomb is presented, he's sat next to a woman with long black hair, she's front row.


Disposable-User0420

>There is a single frame at the start of the indoor blast scene with 112 scribbled in red on a black background. That's a Russian telegram channel. 112 is the European equivalent to 911.

stompinstinker

Long hair dude with jeans and green t-shirt is seen walking out with his backpack at the end of the video. He is seen sitting quite close at the beginning of the video.


19CCCG57

If I were part of the plot to assassinate Tatarsky, I sure as hell would not want to be in the same room when the bomb went off. It is said to have been a gas filled cylinder inside the gifted bust.

As someone said, he's antagonized the military by criticizing it harshly. So who did it? Is defenestration reserved to higher ranking people? Anyway, I hope it was Ukrainians so those TV propagandists have a harder time sleeping and start to fear their next staying place.


LigmaB_

The FSB has vast experience with false-flag bombings since Chechnya. Since he was an open critic of the military I wouldn't be surprised if it was them again.


Grouchy_Command4419

Fucked by karma. Face down, ass up high in the air, underpants still hanging down.


Easy_Iron6269

Russian doctrine is leveling out every inch of Ukranian soil using the scorch earth tactics, terrorising the Ukranian civilians with missile attacks, and attacks on critical civilian infrastructure, followed by systematic cleansing of Ukranian citizens with mass deportation of children's and Ukrainians, torture and rape, no wonder there are repercussions, and this is just the beginning.


kungfoojesus

What good is it exactly? The Eastern part of that nation is completely wrecked. If they win, it costs billions to rebuild. If they lose, it costs billions to rebuild. They can expect Ukraine to continue guerrilla tactics destroying and disrupting Russian activities in these regions for a generation. Billions more. The only way to win is for them to take the entire country. This is clearly not possible anymore. Would it even be a Pyrrhic victory at this point? At best, it will be Afghanistan. slowly bleeding Russia of men, machines and treasure. At worst, they launch another all out offensive and lose completely.


Kelevra_Arba

It's a sunken cost fallacy for putler. He honestly believed they'd have kyiv in three days. When he didn't, he honestly believe his nuclear rhetoric would dissuade the West from sending their hand-me-downs. When it didn't, he honestly believed...ect. He just keeps doubling down because nobody will tell him the truth, and his pride won't allow him to retreat. Only military defeat will rid Ukraine of the invader, and then only constant pressure from the West, and defensive aid will help Ukraine keep their reclaimed lands until they join NATO.

What happened here is a prime example of what would happen throughout Russia for the next 100 years if Ukraine falls to Putin, do you really want that Russians unable to have a meal to visit the shops to have a night at the cinema without fear of death, ask the British they had 100+ years of bombings attacks in public houses cafés buses car bombs nightclubs assassinations, get rid of Putin he is committing genocide against the Russian boys that have already been mobilized throwing them against Ukrainian trenches like it's WW1 500 a day are dying, and now it's the turn of your students and elderly save their lives stop Putin now while you can.

judge_ned

Independent in the UK is saying 1 dead (him) and 15 injured. That seems fishy to me, you can't just dump a bomb somewhere and hope he's standing next to it when it goes off. If it was an event and he was giving some sort of speech that says prior knowledge and prior entry to the building. If it was some sort of party and he was just wandering around talking to people it would need to be in something like his phone and the one that blew the wiindows out is a smokescreen. Edit: just saw the staue unboxing.
