Zelimkhan Khangoshvili

Zelimkhan Sultanovich Khangoshvili was an ethnic Chechen Georgian who was a former platoon commander for the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria during the Second Chechen War, and a Georgian military officer during the 2008 Russo-Georgian War. Later on, he allegedly turned into a useful source of information for Georgian intelligence by identifying Russian spies and jihadists operating on domestic and foreign soil through a connection with Georgian intelligence agents. Khangoshvili continued to be considered a terrorist by the Russian security service, the Federal Security Service, and wanted in Russia. On 23 August 2019, Khangoshvili was assassinated in a Berlin park by Vadim Krasikov, a Russian FSB operative.
