10. It does, a little further down.

You have to go through some rabbit holes along the way. They cite the Kyiv Independent, but I couldn't find anything about this on their site. So as far as I'm concerned, it's unconfirmed until verified from a better source. That said, I hope it's true.

A top Russian military figure has been killed in the war in Ukraine according to local news outlets citing a social media post by his colleague.

Ukrainian news outlets were reporting that Andrei Sukhovetsky, deputy commander of the 41st Combined Arms Army of the Central Military District, had been killed on Wednesday.

Media outlets cited a post on VKontakte announcing the death, written by Sergei Chipilev, a deputy of the Russian veterans group, Combat Brotherhood.

"It is with great sorrow that we learned of the tragic news about the death of our friend, Major General Andrei Aleksandrovich Sukhovetsky, on the territory of Ukraine during a special operation," his post said, without specifying the circumstances.

Christo Grozev, executive director of fact-checking website Bellingcat, tweeted news of the death, adding that if confirmed it would be a "major demotivator" for Russian forces.


News of the death was also reported by Russian media outlets. Lenta.ru carried the story, while Alexander Kots, a correspondent for the mass circulation tabloid Komsomolskaya Pravda, described the death in a post on social network Telegram.

11. Strange that Russian media would report it

But that makes it more credible than reddit.

12. Always good to be skeptical, but...

... this is one that I am inclined to believe because it is quite specific, and easy to disprove in the long term.
