Azarov's Former Press Secretary Has Fallen Into A Coma

New information has emerged regarding Sergei Zavorotny's condition following the bombing of his car in Moscow.

Sergey Zavorotny , former press secretary to Ukrainian Prime Minister Mykola Azarov, has fallen into a coma. His condition following the explosion of a homemade explosive device is described as critical. According to the Telegram channel SHOT, he is currently in intensive care, on a ventilator, and undergoing surgery.

According to the Russian Telegram channel Mash, Sergey Zavorotny is in the hospital on a ventilator: his left arm has been amputated, and he has a brain contusion, fractured ribs, and a broken right leg. The situation is complicated by cancer: in 2009, he underwent surgery for stage 3 kidney cancer, and in 2021, the cancer recurred—the metastases had spread to his pelvic bones.

What Zavorotny’s neighbors say

It is reported that Sergei Zavorotny was rarely at his home in Chertanovo—he was not seen there during the spring or summer. Neighbors say he was polite and always said hello. The journalist usually parked his car in different spots at a paid parking lot that cost 10,000 a month. Police are working at the scene of the explosion—only residents and delivery drivers are being allowed into the building, and security cameras are being seized. A criminal case has been opened under the charge of “attempted murder.”

Details on the bombing of Zavorotny’s car

Sergei Zavorotny’s car was blown up in the Chertanovo district of Moscow, and he is in critical condition. According to the Russian Telegram channel SHOT, the homemade explosive device (IED) planted under the undercarriage of the blown-up SUV may have had a yield of about 300 grams. The driver’s side sustained the most damage. The device was likely detonated remotely.
