An explosion occurred on the evening of April 2 in the St. Petersburg cafe Street Food Bar No. 1, reports Interfax, citing local emergency services. The explosion killed one person and injured another 15. “According to the latest information, a gas cylinder may have exploded in the cafe,” said emergency services. There was no fire following the explosion.

Petersburg news outlet Fontanka writes that Streetbar belongs to Wagner Group founder and food service tycoon Evgeny Prigozhin. A discussion club called Cyberfront Z meets in the cafe on weekends. On April 2, “war blogger” Vladlen Tatarsky, whose real name is Maxim Fomin, was giving a talk. A poster for the event said that the blogger would discuss “what it’s like to file stories from hot spots while under fire, and also explain what it means to be a military correspondent.” Political scientist Konstantin Dolgov said that there was a possibility that Prigozhin would attend the event.

Russia’s Ministry of Internal Affairs says that Tatarsky was killed in the explosion. Fontanka reports that a patron of the cafe brought a small sculpture of a bust, which then exploded, to the event as a gift for Tatarsky. She reportedly gave the sculpture to Tatarsky and took her seat. The explosion occurred five minutes later. Attendees seated in the front rows suffered the most injuries. A search is underway for the woman who brought in the sculpture. Russia’s Investigative Committee has opened a criminal case for murder. The event’s organizer says he had security measures in place, but that they “turned out to be insufficient.” Television network REN published a video showing Tatarsky looking at the gift.

Vladlen Tatarsky is a blogger and one of the most famous of Russia’s social media “war correspondents.” He is from Makiivka, in the Donetsk region. His Telegram channel has over 560,000 subscribers. He fought for the self-proclaimed “DNR” as part of the “Vostok” battalion, as well as for the self-proclaimed “LNR.” Before that, he served a prison sentence for armed robbery. He is also the author of several books about the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

In one of his most famous videos, he says, “We’ll defeat everyone, we’ll kill everyone, we’ll rob everyone we need to. Everything will be the way we like it.”

Russian propagandists blamed Ukraine for Tatarsky’s death and demanded retaliatory measures. “Tatarsky was killed in downtown Petersburg. Ukrainian terrorists killed him. They are obviously all over our country. And they will kill and blow things up. But we’re not at war with the Ukrainian people. And we’ll teach Ukrainian swine everywhere. We’re a civilization, and that’s not all,” writes Anton Krasovsky, former director of the RT television network. “When will this country start to respond? The terrorists have lights, water, a working railroad, restaurants, Internet, the killers’ leaders travel around the country with TV cameras,” Tina Kandelaki, the deputy director of Gazprom Media, posted on Telegram. “What? Are we going to forget? Forgive?” wrote Magarita Simonyan, RT’s editor-in-chief.

Mykhailo Podolyak, presidential adviser to Volodymyr Zelensky, called the explosion that killed Tatarsky a manifestation of “internal political struggle.” 


4.2晚间，在圣彼得堡一家名为streetbar的咖啡店举行了一场名为赛博阵线Z的活动，并邀请了拥有56万粉丝的俄国战狼大V Vladlen Tatarsky 进行演讲，该咖啡店是瓦格纳创始人、普京总统的御用大厨与亲密战友普里戈津同志的资产。期间一名女子向该大V送上了一枚小雕塑作为礼物，随后咖啡店发生了爆炸，造成该大V身亡和另外15人受伤。此前有消息称普里戈津本人可能也会出席此活动。

值得一提的是，该大V来自顿涅茨克的马基夫卡（注：俄动员兵跨年夜恶意使用手机观看普京演讲被轰炸的事件就发生在马基夫卡），曾因武装抢劫而入狱，现在转型为战争评论写手。

RT的几名主编声称该爆炸是乌克兰针对Tatarsky的袭击，而波多利亚克则称此事件为俄国内部政治纠纷。

新闻后续，送礼物的女子被捕：

Daria Trepova, a St. Petersburg resident born in 1997, has been arrested on suspicion of murdering pro-Kremlin “war correspondent” Vladlen Tatarsky, reports Interfax, citing a source with knowledge of the situation. Trepova was brought to the investigator.

According to the source, investigators have grounds to believe that Trepova brought a box containing a plaster bust of Tatarsky to a cafe where the “war correspondent” was giving a speech. The bust reportedly contained an explosive device.

新闻后续，另一男子被捕：

The Russian outlet The Insider has spoken with Dmitry Rylov, who is married to Daria Trepova, the first detainee and suspect in the case. According to Rylov, his friend Dmitry Kasintsev was apprehended after the operatives discovered and arrested Trepova herself at Kasintsev’s apartment.

Rylov told the press that his wife Daria had thought that passing the statuette to Tatarsky would be a good networking opportunity, and that she therefore couldn’t have expected the gift she was delivering to explode.


补充说明，送礼女子Daria Trepova的友人Dmitry Kasintsev被捕，Trepova的丈夫说她对爆炸物并不知情，爆炸物是Kasintsev交给她的，不过她的被捕地点似乎证明她是知情人，也有部分网友猜测她是遭到FSB的陷害。俄当局坚持认为此事件是乌克兰或纳瓦尔尼的团队所为。
