Isn't that more likely to be some kind of training mission for a junior agent? (make it personal, not totally clean and get away with it anyway?)
When they just want to make sure to kill someone, dumping a few magazines into the body and driving over it afterwards for good measure, like that ex-pilot in Spain, appears to do the trick just fine.
To be fair FSB/GRU doesn’t really care about it being secret
A lot of assassinations are sending a message
Russia abandoned a lot of the “secret” part of their dirty ops in the past decade and just farms it out
