The Ukrainian Intelligence reported this incident.

"On October 23, 2023, a car carrying four Russian FSB agents was destroyed by an explosion in Berdyansk, which is currently under occupation," the message stated.

This action was carried out by Ukrainian resistance members on Michurin Street near the Jasmine Guest-House hotel, which was being used as a hideout by the FSB.

Among those killed was a Russian soldier who had tortured Ukrainian locals.

“After the car explosion, the local authorities in the occupied Zaporizhzhia region extended the curfew from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM. The Russian special service agents left the hotel immediately and relocated,” the message says. 

The Russian Telegram channel Baza first reported the car explosion.

It is noted that the explosion occurred around 9:00 p.m. near a house on Michurin Street.

According to preliminary data, the bomb was planted under the driver's seat of a VAZ-2101, which the soldier was driving. He died on the spot.

Subsequently, the so-called Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation in the Zaporizhzhia region confirmed the death of a Russian soldier in Berdнansk. They noted that they were establishing the circumstances of the incident and opened a criminal case on the fact of "committing a terrorist act."

The invaders say that an improvised explosive device was placed under the car of the Russian armed forces serviceman. When the man got into the car, it went off and exploded. 

• On the night before, on October 20, several powerful explosions occurred on the outskirts of the temporarily occupied Melitopol near the Russian military base. The guerrillas blew up a car with looters.
