In Ukraine, during the fighting near the village of Mykolayivka in Luhansk region, Major General of the Russian Army Roman Kutuzov was killed.
This was reported by several Russian websites, as well as the correspondent of the Russian state VDTRK Alexander Sladkov, who previously noted several fakes about the war in Ukraine.
Another Russian General Roman Kutuzov has died in Ukraine.
The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation has not yet made an official statement, but pro-Russian telegram channels are already expressing their condolences in full.
According to Sladkov, Kutuzov is "the fourth Russian general to die in battle."
In 2020, Kutuzov commanded a parade in honor of the 75th anniversary of the victory in World War II. He was then chief of staff of the 29th All-Army.
Neither the Ukrainian nor the Russian side officially confirms Kutuzov's death in Luhansk region.
On May 24, the Russian Air Force reported the death of retired Russian Major General Kanamat Botashev in Ukraine. According to the publication, his Su-25 plane was shot down by the Ukrainian military in the sky over the Luhansk region.
Earlier, the media, including the British BBC, citing open sources, reported the deaths during the fighting in Ukraine of about 60 officers of the Russian army with the rank of lieutenant colonel and above. The Russian Defense Ministry did not comment on this information.
According to British intelligence, in the three months of its large-scale war against Ukraine , Russia is likely to have lost as many troops as the Soviet Union during its nine-year war in Afghanistan.
