A Putin army general has been ‘killed by an exploding Russian mine’, according to reports.<\/p>\n
Major-General Vladimir Zavadsky, 45, was deputy commander of Russia’s 14th Army Corps.<\/p>\n
He perished ‘as a result of a mine explosion in the rear area, and not a military clash with the enemy’ on the frontline, reported Telegram channel VChK-OGPU.<\/p>\n
The report states that the incident occurred during a ‘senseless’ redeployment of his group away from the frontline,<\/p>\n
The channel alleged the Russian armed forces were making an attempt to cover-up the circumstances of his death and blame it on a Ukrainian artillery strike.<\/p>\n

The 45-year-old perished ‘as a result of a mine explosion in the rear area, and not a military clash with the enemy’ on the frontline, reported Telegram channel VChK-OGPU<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The high ranking military leader was married to Oksana, 47, with two sons\u00a0<\/p>\n
An investigation into the general’s death is examining if the mine was laid by another Russian unit to guard against enemy raiding groups.<\/p>\n
Zavadsky, a father of two, is believed to be the 12th Russian general killed in the 22-month war, although Ukraine says 16 Putin generals have perished, while Russia only admits to six.<\/p>\n
Some reports are claiming the millitary leader died in the occupied Kherson region of Ukraine.<\/p>\n
His death has not been officially announced by the Russian defence ministry, but they seldom report high-ranking losses.<\/p>\n
However it was publicly communicated by the Russian Interregional Public Organisation of Graduates of the Moscow Kremlin Higher Military Command School, which he had attended.<\/p>\n
Russian Telegram channels also announced the loss.<\/p>\n
In 2022, Zavadsky commanded the Taman Division, and during the Ukrainian counteroffensive in the Kharkiv region.<\/p>\n
