      Yeah, I’m in the same boat. I believe this is more as Propaganda direct from Putin.

      Unless this guy was a dissenting general, doesn’t make a lot of sense from a propaganda perspective. Too costly.

        It’s not like they’ve been bringing home the bacon. Would not surprise me if they’ve been telling lies about how well the campaign is going.

          I’m certain Russian propaganda is in full swing over there. Less certain that arbitrarily killing one of your top military leaders is necessary for that end.
