Vyacheslav Nikolayevich Borisov (Russian: Вячеслав Николаевич Борисов; 12 January 1955 – 4 November 2021) was a Russian major general. He took part in the 2008 Russo-Georgian War as a commanding officer in South Ossetia. The International Criminal Court (ICC) collected evidence against Borisov, who, according to a ICC prosecutor, was "believed to have intentionally contributed to the execution" of war crimes against Georgian civilians, but Borisov died before the ICC investigation was concluded.^[2]
