“The number of injured ordinary military personnel, who are not staff members, is still being determined. These are serving soldiers, security guards, and the like – they are not on the list I notified you about,” Budanov said.
Romanchuk commands a group of Russian troops in the direction of Zaporizhzhia and received the rank of colonel general this year. Chekov is the commander of the 200th separate motorized rifle brigade of the Coastal Forces of the Russian Northern Fleet.
