Ukraine said that one of its security service members was killed Thursday in central Kyiv, in what appeared to be the most recent targeted attack on security personnel since Russia invaded.

Moscow has accused Kyiv of orchestrating a spate of high-profile killings of Russian military officials or pro-Kremlin commentators since the Kremlin launched the invasion in February 2022.

Those attacks have been carried out both in Kremlin-controlled territory in Ukraine and on Russian soil.

“A criminal investigation has been launched into the murder of an SBU employee in the Golosiivsky district of Kyiv,” the Security Service of Ukraine told AFP in a statement.

Ukrainian media posted what appeared to be security camera footage showing a man walking through a parking lot with bags being attacked by another man who ran towards the victim.

The SBU did not identify the person killed in the attack nor specify what weapon was used.

However, the independent Ukrainska Pravda outlet reported that the SBU officer killed was Colonel Ivan Voronych.

The suspect fired five times at the victim with a silenced pistol, it reported, citing SBU sources.

The SBU said in its statement that an investigation was opened into the killing of a member of law enforcement.

Police said separately they had discovered “the body of a man with a gunshot wound” in the same district, without linking the incident to the SBU.

“All circumstances surrounding the incident are currently being established,” the statement said.
