A Russian army commander has been killed by a group of demoralised soldiers fed up with the scale of losses during the invasion of Ukraine, Western officials have said.

The commander of the 37th rifle brigade, named by officials as Colonel Medvechek, is understood to have been run over by one of his own soldiers who had grown frustrated by his unit's heavy losses.

Run over by one of his tanks, jellying both legs. He was still alive when they took him to a field hospital where the Chechen commander hoped he be back on his feet soon ...

It is exactly the type of information to be put out as disinformation by those against Russia.

That would include the Russian unit’s videos of the commander being carried off on a stretcher?

The 37th MRB is a real unit designation in the Uzbek forces

Apparently true, but there is also:

"The location of the 37th separate guards motorized rifle Don Budapest Red Banner Order of the Red Star Brigade, or military unit 69647, is the city of Kyakhta of the Republic of Buryatia." Used Google translate on:

https://voinskayachast.net/suhoputnie-voyska/motostrelkovie/vch69647 It was formed from the 5th Guards Tank Division.

Just Russian humor, masquerading as a MP skit.

This happened two weeks ago.

“A group of disgruntled Russian soldiers reportedly killed their commanding officer in Ukraine. A western official claimed that Colonel Yuri Medvedev who was the commander of 37 Motor Rifle Brigade, was intentionally run down in a tank by his own troops as Russian casualties continue to mount in Ukraine.

The brigade commander of one of the units was killed by his own troops, we believe, as a consequence of the scale of loss that had been taken by his brigade,” the official said. “That just gives an insight into perhaps some of the morale challenges that Russian forces are having.”

Let me clue you in, Mr. Grzegorz 246.

Anyone can write for Yahoo. That means you, your dog, your gardener, your mother-in-law and the local welfare bum who sits on the corner begging for change.

Yahoo scribblers are paid one-quarter of a penny for each click on their articles. Thus, these communist liars write the most outrageous garbage to get clicks on their made-up crap.

By clicking on Yahoo articles, you are giving American communists money to pay their rent, buy food and get high on drugs.

Americans want to starve communists and make them homeless. We can do so by NOT clicking on Yahoo articles and NOT posting Yahoo garbage on FR.

He’s a pretty evil dude IMHO bro.
I don’t take “sides” in this conflict with Russia-Ukraine because both sides are led by evil men.

And as for Putin being “christian”, the polonium trail doesn’t agree with that statement and neither does Robert Kraft’s ring.

“Frag, to kill an allied soldier usually by ordinance.”

That would be a form of lawfare then?
