Lieutenant General Yakov Lezanthev, commander of the 49th Allied Forces, was killed today in Hersson, southern Ukraine.
The cause of death is said to have been killed in the shelling of Ukrainian troops at Hersson Airport, where the 49th Command was located.
He is the seventh official Russian general to die, and the second lieutenant general to die.
The funny thing is that the first lieutenant general to die, the commander of the Eighth Army, was also killed in artillery fire at Hersson Airport, and this time he was killed in the same place and in the same way.
In addition, Lieutenant General Yakov, who died recently, graduated from all three military schools he graduated from and served as a field commander three times in the Syrian Civil War. I think the Russian army suffered more damage than one commander died.
