Kirill Stremousov in Kherson is another rat who's fled the sinking ship.

Heh. Funny isn't it, that the first Russian Ukrainians to flee into Russia always seem to be the corrupt buggers the Kremlin was paying to administer the occupation.

And funny how some Russian explanations for mistakes/defeats/retreats have more than a whiff of 'Allo 'Allo - Rene caught with the servant girl about them.

You Stupid Comrade! I am not fleeing! Can you not see, I am... er... TELECOMMUTING!

Just like Yanukovych... who thought he could order a total Ukrainian military surrender over the phone from Moscow. Some people actually seem surprised that Ukraine's government responded to his doing that by majority-voting to declare him unfit to continue as President. Rinse and repeat with Strelkiv, Pushilin, Stremousov....

Any more front line pro-Russian Ukrainian authorities trying to lead from the front in Ukraine from deep inside Putin's safe territories?

Oh, yes. Kadyrov, in Grozny.

I guess he forewent the ammo and took the ride instead...
