A Russian military officer who had commanded a submarine in the Black Sea and appeared on a Ukrainian blacklist of alleged war criminals has been shot dead by an unknown assassin while on his morning run.
Stanislav Rzhitsky, 42, was gunned down early on Monday in the southern Russian city of Krasnodar. His address, picture, and personal details had appeared on the Ukrainian website Myrotvorets (Peacemaker,) a vast unofficial database of people considered to be enemies of Ukraine.
