Ramzan Kadyrov has repeatedly attacked the running of the war in Ukraine He has summoned UAE doctor because he 'does not trust' the Moscow doctors
Chechen warlord Ramzan Kadyrov - a close ally of Vladimir Putin - is reported to be seriously ill with kidney problems amid fears of 'poisoning'.
The fanatical pro-war zealot who has advocated using nuclear weapons against Ukraine is rumoured to have summoned a leading doctor from the United Arab Emirates because he 'does not trust' Moscow doctors.
The kidney illness accounted for Kadyrov's surprising absence from Putin's state of the nation speech last month, several opposition sources claimed. It was also said it has led to his recent 'bloated' appearance, as seen at a recent meeting in his palace in Chechen capital Grozny with Denis Pushilin, head of the invaded Donetsk People's Republic.
While Kadyrov, 46, is one of Putin's closest allies, the Chechen strongman - reportedly a father of 14 with three current wives - has strongly attacked the running of the war, especially by the Russian defence ministry and certain generals.
The claims suggest Kadyrov may have been poisoned, a fate which reportedly befell his close ally Major-General Apti Alaudinov, 50, last month in an 'attempted assassination'.

Shot at where? Colombia or at the penny arcade? Did you do any shooting back? How many did you hit, wound or kill? My impression is that you did some real stuff 25-30 years ago, and you have been riffing off that ever since. Dreaming off that ever since.
“As for my list of unique “adventures”, I have seen war, the mindless programmed killing, the bodies, pain and suffering.”
With the end result that you are a Putin acolyte who likes his invasion of Ukraine after being “poked”. I wish I had a dollar for every time some dumbass here said, “Don’t poke the Russian bear”
Waiting for cold war warrior dennis to dish up some “boy with two heads and body of a fish discovered in Nigerian town” stories from the mail.
Donald Trump is the leader of the Republican party
Is he a high and mighty snake?
I don’t think that will be enough Moov.
Bakhmut is of course of strategic value. It is covering the crossing of three major train lines and four major roads (M-03, M-32, T-13-02, T-05-13). As such it is the linchpin of the whole Donbas region. Besides that it also has some valuable mineral mines.
That is why the Ukrainian government has send ten thousands of its troops to fight and die for that city.
###
Russian source report death per week at a lower rate than Ukrainian death per day. The ratio is again about 10 Ukrainians for 1 Russian.
I have said for a while that Bakhmut was in operational encirclement. Russian artillery could reach its last roads in and out. Since three days ago Bakhmut is in tactical encirclement. Russian direct fire, i.e. tank guns and hand held anti-tank missiles, can now cover all of Bakhmut's supply routes. They will shot at any car that attempts to drive there. Its one reason why the reported deaths have harshly increased.
Should the Ukraine decide to order its soldiers to stay in Bakhmut the city will be physically encircled. All roads will be blocked not only by fire but by heavily armed Russian checkpoints. The Ukrainian soldiers in Bakhmut, several thousands still seem to be there, will then be left with only two options: surrender or die.
Tell that to the GOPe snakes like McConnell, Ryan, and Romney that fought President Trump every step of the way.
