Killed by Kyiv sabotage team Major-General Dmitry Ulyanov, 44, was killed in a firefight with sabotage group He was formerly a top paratrooper and returned to service from retirement

Vladimir Putin has lost yet another general in the war in Ukraine, according to reports.

Major-General Dmitry Ulyanov, 44, had returned to active service after retirement as a commander in Russia's illegal Ukrainian invasion.

He died in a firefight when he was attacked by a Ukrainian sabotage group this week, say reports.

Previously Ulyanov was a top paratrooper, commander of the elite 98th Guards Airborne Division.

He went to the current war commanding a regiment of mobilised motorised infantrymen from Tatarstan.

The death means Putin has lost at least ten such senior commanders.

Ulyanov had earlier served as the Chief of Staff of the 7th Airborne Division, commander of the 1141st artillery regiment, and commander of the 98th Airborne Division, say open sources.

Ulyanov is the first such high ranked commander to be killed for many months.

A family friend posted that he had been the son of a commander.

'Like his father did not sit in the rear, he went to the front line,' said the eulogy.

It would seem that Putin has been blown more often than Bill Clinton in this Ukrainian fandango!

“Ulyanov is the first such high ranked commander to be killed for many months.”

This is true. The Russian generals in Ukraine have been holed up. While Wagner and their convict/ cannon fodder army go on the offensive.

It’s good thing to see a few Generals getting killed instead of only Privates and Lieutenants.

Right, so it would be smart for Putin to grab a gun and lead a charge of Wagnerites?

Was the recent CCP weather balloon a false flag? Was it a pedo false flag? And there are many photos of your Putin conferring with Klaus Schwab. Does this align Putin with the globohomo movement?

Only one group of your globohomopedo coalition engineered a color revolution in ukraine to overturn a government, ignored the independence vote promised, installed an actor to preside over a war, and turned down peaceful resolution of the conflicts before war broke out (and after).

The rest of what you posted is just kicking up dust to substitute for thought, so is rightfully rejected.

Nobody asks that question, it is the first one I ask when we learn that an LRRP/LRS mission or a sniper mission is called off because they wouldn’t murder a civilian who comes across them, was the mission expendable, or should they have killed the child or adult civilian?

You forgot to mention Putin invading Crimea and taking it over in the same time frame of 2014. And where is that traitorous pos Ukrainian prime minister Yanukovych living now? In Russia of course. Living off the billion dollars+ bribe Putin gave him to not interfere in Putin’s takeover of Crimea

That color revolution was about Ukrainians wanting to engage more with Europe and less with Russia. But scummy barbarian Putin does not believe in other nations making such choices. For Putin his barbarians must dominate like they did when the USSR was around. This is why Ukraine, Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Moldova, etc. want nothing to do with Russia

Very smart, knowing your globohomopedo group would deprive Russia of their traditional sea port. I see your point.

No, it was fomented by Soros et al, in order to capture Ukraine. If you cannot see that, you are not remotely objective, which I am guessing is true, based on the lib news you post.
