Russian general's body recovered almost one month after he was killed Major-General Oleg Mityaev, 47, was killed in an ambush fighting in Mariupol It is claimed that Russia has lost seven generals in the invasion of Ukraine so far First was Chechen Major General Magomed Tushayev, killed on second day The body was recovered after reports that a Ukrainian brigade had surrendered

Russia has finally retrieved the body of one of its seven generals slain in Ukraine almost a month after he was killed, reports say.

The corpse of a general believed to be Major-General Oleg Mityaev, 47, commander of the army's feared 150th motorised rifle division, was recovered from where it had lain for weeks after he was killed in an ambush in Mariupol on March 16.

Russia usually refuses to confirm the deaths of its generals in battle but Ukraine's defence ministry has claimed seven killed in action, the first being Major General Magomed Tushayev, killed two days into the invasion at Hostomel on February 26.

The most recent death is claimed to be that of Lt Gen Yakov Rezantsev, commander of Russia's 49th combined army, killed in a strike near the southern city of Kherson on March 25.

The pro-Moscow Wargonzo Telegram channel reported that Ukrainian marines from the 36th brigade of the Ukrainian armed forces cooperated in an operation 'to evacuate the body of our high-ranking officer from the Illich factory in Mariupol', without naming the general but giving his rank.

Fitting, he was probably wearing one of those stripped shirts.

Lol, once again, reporting that the Putin brigade denied as "Western propaganda" is later confirmed by a Russian source.

“It is claimed that”

“reports say.”

You can pull that off only if you don’t look more like Buddha!

“Major-General Oleg Mityaev, 47, was killed in an ambush fighting in Mariupol”

I’m all in for Ukraine in this war but allow me to recognize that this man died alongside the men he ordered into battle.

And when is Pidor Putin going to visit the front?

After a month? Could be pretty ripe, depending on how he was “kept.”

———-
1,095 Ukie Marines just surrendered in Mariupol, the Neo Nazi stronghold has fallen. I don’t think the west gets it, casualties matter little for Vlad, he does what he says.
Vlad will bury the dead and move on. The Ukies will bury their dead, then go begging for US taxpayers to rebuild the rubble( minus 10 percent for Joe).
Support neither Vlad nor Zelensky, both are very corrupted and evil leaders.

My take: Ukraine military surrender in Mariupol allowed Russians to recover body of their fallen General.

That complex is 12 miles of buildings and underground as well Huge complex. Not surprising he wasn’t discovered.

Question :
The Russian military found an UAV with liquid containers and sprayers on the territory of one of the military units abandoned by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
What are these? ....they look like drones but what would they use these for?

Could be an aerosol. Farmers here in the US sometimes use drones to spray crops. Lots cheaper than using “crop dusters” and the like. The problem is, it does not cover a large field before refilling is necessary.

The question is, what is in the plastic container?
