Mystery As Russian Colonels Fall out of Windows
Newsweek ^ | 2/6/2025 | Isabel van Brugen

Two Russian colonels are reported to have fallen out of windows in the space of two days, adding to a growing list of high-ranking officials who have died in mysterious circumstances since Vladimir Putin's war in Ukraine began.

Artur Pryakhin, 56, the head of a regional branch of Russia's Federal Antimonopoly Service (FAS) in the Republic of Karelia, died after falling from a fifth floor window of an office building at around noon on February 4.

Local authorities said he left a suicide note in his office in which he apologized to his wife, asked his loved ones for forgiveness, and urged them not to blame anyone for his death.

On the same day, in Moscow, the head of Russia's Investigative Committee Forensic Center plunged from a fourth floor window at his office building. Colonel Alexey Zubkov survived and was found conscious after avoiding serious injury, reported local news outlet MK.ru.

He claimed he went to the bathroom—the room from which he fell—but had no recollection of falling from the window. Zubkov was hospitalized, and an investigation into the incident is ongoing.

And on Thursday, 58-year-old Russian musician and radio host Vadim Stroykin died after he fell out of a window in St. Petersburg as his apartment was being searched by authorities, Komsomolskaya Pravda reported.

This is what happens when your personal anti-gravity device fails. Those chips from washing machines just aren’t reliable.

The Russian military was one of the first to experiment with the concept of airborne troops.

At some point in the development of the concept, they decided to incorporate parachutes.

Defenestration is very very popular with the Putin regime, I guess you could say it’s the Russian version of Arkancide.

“Defenestration,” is an old way of getting rid of undesirables, past their time or use by date.
Russians are keen on history and “DF.” is better than poison or the bullet in the back of the head.
