Russian media reported on Monday that a Ukrainian missile strike on the southern Zaporizhzhia front killed an experienced Russian general.
“As a result of an enemy missile attack, the Chief of Staff of the 35th Combined Arms Army, Maj Gen Sergei Goryachev, was killed,” the prominent pro-war blogger Voenkor said in a Telegram post.
Goryachev, a decorated commander, previously led Russian troops in Moldova’s breakaway region of Transnistria.
Voenkor added that “according to representatives of the command of the United Group of Forces (S), the army has lost today one of the brightest and most effective military leaders”.
Several Russian war bloggers said Goryachev was likely killed by a UK-supplied Storm Shadow cruise missile.
The Russian defence ministry is yet to comment on the reported death of Goryachev.
More than a dozen Russian generals are believed to have been killed since Moscow invaded Ukraine.
The Zaporizhzhia region, of which about 80% is controlled by Russian forces, is believed to be one of the main focuses of Ukraine’s counteroffensive.
