General Valery Zaluzhny, commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian armed forces, who had disappeared from the public eye in recent weeks, was seriously wounded some weeks ago in a Russian strike near the city of Kherson, a security source told RIA Novosti.
The general had undergone craniotomy after the strike, the source claimed. The attendant doctors’ prognosis is that the 49-year-old is going to live but won’t be able to execute his duties as commander anymore, he added.
