Russian lieutenant general shot by attacker in Moscow, investigators report

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov suggested, without providing evidence, that Ukraine and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy could be behind the attack, claiming it might be intended to interfere with ongoing negotiations between Washington, Kyiv, and Moscow.
