Media: Azarov's Former Press Secretary Lost An Arm In The Moscow Bombing

He is currently in the hospital.

Sergey Zavorotny, former press secretary to Ukraine’s ex-Prime Minister Mykola Azarov, lost his left arm in a car bombing in Moscow. He is currently in the hospital, according to Russian media reports, as relayed by Dialog.UA.

Journalists claim that Sergei Zavorotny sustained serious injuries during a car explosion in Moscow that occurred on the morning of November 13. He previously served as press secretary to former Ukrainian Prime Minister Mykola Azarov.

Azarov himself stated that he is fine and is verifying the information about the attempt on Zavorotny’s life. The car, which Zavorotny was believed to be driving, exploded on the morning of November 13 on Kirovogradskaya Street. The explosive device is believed to have detonated under the car’s wheels.

The victim was hospitalized with a brain contusion, traumatic amputation of his left arm at the shoulder, rib fractures, and an open fracture of his right lower leg.

The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation has already opened a criminal case regarding this incident. Sergey Zavorotny served for a long time as the press secretary for Mykola Azarov, who fled to Russia in 2014.

He is known for his anti-Ukrainian statements and his unwavering support for Russian dictator Vladimir Putin. He referred to the Revolution of Dignity in Ukraine as “state coups.”
