Russia & Ukraine

It is hard to keep up but the article says it was reported on Sunday, so this sounds like another dead general.

Some of those generals need to take better care of themselves. Seems to be a high-risk occupation.


Russian general killed in eastern Ukraine, Russian state media reporter says


LONDON, June 5 (Reuters) - A Russian general was killed in eastern Ukraine, a Russian state media journalist said on Sunday, adding to the string of high-ranking military casualties sustained by Moscow.

The report, published on the Telegram messaging app by state television reporter Alexander Sladkov, did not say precisely when and where Major General Roman Kutuzov was killed.

The very model of Modern *Russian* Major General…
 
Where do you get your news from? You have no idea about the reporting on all of the mass shootings over the weekend but you’re in tune with shoddy reporting on Putin’s health…

I get it from Linkedin and Twitter. And here, apparently. Is that a Putin clone?
 
Russians -- nothing but looters. It is time to blockade all cargo ships leaving the Bosporus and Dardanelles straits and authenticate ships cargo’s ownership.

American diplomats have alerted 14 countries, most in Africa, that Russian ships filled with stolen Ukrainian grain could be headed their way, posing a dilemma to countries facing dire food shortages.

Russia has confirmed the dead general.

BBC.

Russian state media have confirmed the death of one of Moscow's top generals during heavy fighting in Ukraine's eastern Donbas region.

Maj Gen Roman Kutuzov was killed leading an assault on a Ukrainian settlement in the region, a reporter with the state-owned Rossiya 1 said.

Alexander Sladkov said Gen Kutuzov had been commanding troops from the self-declared Donetsk People's Republic.

Russia's defence ministry has not commented on the reports.

"The general had led soldiers into attack, as if there are not enough colonels," Mr Sladkov wrote on the Telegram social media app. "On the other hand, Roman was the same commander as everyone else, albeit a higher rank."

BTW - there are reports that Lt-General Berdnikov was killed the same day, and the immediate recognition of Kutuzov's death (whose body Ukrainians recovered) was to cover up for Berdnikov's death as well, since his body wasn't.

Oh and Russian propaganda is desperate enough that they are now claiming that Russian generals being killed off is a "good sign" :)

 
Yep. To make things even more shameful for them, there are reports that they were both in a column that was trying to cross a bridge.

As discussed many times, the Ruskies do not do bridge crossings well. They like to queue up and then get slaughtered. Already been several notable incidents along that line. So if the early reports are true, it would be another embarassment for them. Not a lot of learning going on there.
