The late Lt. Gen. Fanil Sarvarov was the head of the operational Training Department of the General Staff of the Russian armed forces.


The Investigative Committee of Russia has opened a criminal case into the incident and suspects the Ukrainian special services (SSU).

An international arrest warrant issued by the ICC for war crimes remains active for Russia President Vladimir Putin. An indictment is merely an allegation. Mr. Putin is presumed innocent until proven guilty in an international tribunal to be held for him in the Hague at a future date.

In other news about Russian army generals, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russian Army Colonel-General Sergei Kuzovlev, who recently briefed Vladimir Putin on the occupation of Kupiansk in the Kharkiv region, went missing and may have been found dead recently.

On 20 Nov, Kuzovlev briefed Putin that the Russian army had fully occupied Kupiansk. However, on 12 Dec, Zelensky visited the city and recorded a video, disproving Russia's claims of full occupation, clowning Putin in the process.
