“The investigative authorities will determine the cause of the explosion, but it’s clear that the possibility of sabotage cannot be ruled out,” Razvozhayev said.

The Telegram channel Baza identified the driver as a first-rank captain from Russia’s Black Sea Fleet, though this has not been independently confirmed. Baza and Mash, citing preliminary information, reported that an IED was detonated in the vehicle.
