In a chilling turn of events reminiscent of Cold War-style cloak and dagger tactics, former Russian submarine commander Stanislav Rzhitsky was gunned down during an early Monday morning run in the Russian city of Krasnodar.
According to the New York Post, Russian authorities believe that Rzhitsky’s killer used the popular Strava fitness app to track the ex-captain’s jogging routes, leveraging the power of digital tools to a fatal end.

I didnt know Putin has his own commanders. I thought they were Russian commanders. So the suspect could have been anyone including a disgruntled former sailor under his command.
I imagine there are even some Russians who are disgusted at the way some Russian troops are dirtying the reputation of the Russian military by their torture, murder, and targeting of women and children with rape and missiles. What better way to show Putin how disgusted they are with all of this NON WAR.
