UK: Russian Army Command Undermined After 16 Generals Killed in Ukraine
According to the UK’s Ministry of Defence, Vladimir Putin has lost 16 generals in battle since the war began in Ukraine. This substantial loss has undermined command and control within the Russian Armed Forces, contributing to operational difficulties. Major General Mikhail Gudkov was the latest casualty, dying in a Ukrainian strike. Despite these losses and significant military attrition, Putin has refused to consider long-term ceasefire agreements and still aims to annex all of Ukraine.
