The top brass toll from Vladimir Putin’s brutal war in Ukraine continues to rise, with the death of another colonel. Colonel Ivan Grishin, commander of the 49th anti-aircraft missile brigade, died from abdominal shrapnel wounds. He was killed near Kharkiv. The news comes amid reports from the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine that 20,600 Russian servicemen have been killed in the war. Just days ago, Russia lost its eighth general since the invasion of Ukraine in the latest blow to Vladimir Putin's botched war.
