Russian Commander Sustains Grave Injuries in Ukraine Conflict
The Leningrad Military District, re-established under Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin in 2024, has been one of the military districts involved in Russia's ongoing conflict with Ukraine. The district, which encompasses all regions of northwestern Russia up to the Ural Mountains, is responsible for the military operations in the western part of Russia.
Recent reports suggest that Lieutenant General Esedulla Abatschew, deputy commander of the Leningrad Military District, has been severely wounded during the conflict. According to Ukrainian military intelligence service HUR, the injury was a result of a strike against a military column in the western Russian region of Kursk. However, as with many reports regarding high-ranking Russian military officials' injuries, the information is closely guarded and often subject to misinformation or unverified claims.
Lieutenant General Abatschew, a native of Dagestan, has been at the front since the early days of the war and has held several key command posts. He has been in the most responsible and dangerous sectors of the front, a testament to his commitment to his duties.
The death of Lieutenant General Abatschew is not an isolated incident. Twelve high-ranking Russian generals have been confirmed dead during the war against Ukraine, highlighting the gravity of the situation.
It is important to note that the Leningrad Military District includes regions that were part of Leningrad during Soviet times. Despite the capital of Russia's north being officially known as St. Petersburg, it is still known as Leningrad in some official designations.
As of now, there are no verified or credible reports confirming the serious injury of Lieutenant General Esedulla Abatschew. If there were any confirmed updates on his condition or the circumstances of an injury, they would likely be reported by multiple reliable news sources or official statements.
For the most recent and accurate updates, it is recommended to check trusted news outlets or official statements from the relevant military authorities. Meanwhile, our thoughts are with Lieutenant General Abatschew and all those affected by the ongoing conflict.
