Russian authorities have disclosed that a high-ranking official was targeted in an alleged assassination plot while visiting the grave of a family member at Troyekurovskoye Cemetery in Moscow. The Federal Security Service (FSB) announced the incident last week, raising significant concerns about the security protocols in place for key government figures. While the FSB has not officially confirmed the identity of the targeted official, speculation is rampant, with many suggesting it could be Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu. This claim is echoed by pro-Kremlin media, which has been quick to disseminate information about the alleged plot. The incident has sparked a broader discussion about the increasing risks faced by high-profile individuals within the Russian government and the potential for external actors to target them.
