Lt. Gen. Oleg Tsokov has joined the Russian casualty list after a Storm Shadow strike on a hotel in Berdyansk.
Oh well. So sorry. Thoughts and prayers. Burn in hell.
Gen. Tsokov died in the hotel he was using as a HQ. It can be reasonably assumed that he wasnβt the only officer staying there when Storm Shadow checked in.
x Russian lieutenant general Oleg Tsokov was reportedly killed near temporarily occupied Berdiansk - advisor to Mariupol mayor Petro Andriushchenko.
Tsokov was under sanctions of the EU, Great Britain and New Zealand.

We hope you had a pleasant stay, thanks and come again.

Speaking of generals who are missing, Sergei Surovikin seems to be on an extended vacation somewhere.
x Russian VCHK-OGPU channel follows up on Russian general Surovikin who is reportedly still missing:

"A source of VCHK-OGPU said that as of Monday evening the family of general Sergey Surovikin still received no news about his fate. Despite there being a cause - the military's daughter turning 20. His family complains that no one explained anything about what is going on in "just a friendly way" and they know nothing at all. Surovikin's wife closed off from everyone, even the people closest to her. The birthday girl, their daughter, lives separately from her parents and goes to school. She was recently done with her exams and cannot figure out where her father is.Colleagues of general Armageddon are worried that the honorary member of Wagner PMC could be rid of and it could be staged as heart failure. Several years ago Sergey Suroviki was diagnosed with heart problems. The doctors even suspected a tumor there."
Speaking of high-ranking military figures who are no longer among us, Ukraine has declined to take credit for popping several caps into this war criminal. Rzhitzy was shot in the chest and the back while out for a run.
x The head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry, Budanov, said that the agency had nothing to do with the murder of Russian army captain Stanislav Rzhitsky.

All the better if these were Kadyrovites (Chechens) getting shelled out in the open.
x It is rumoured that these Russian reserves were actually Kadyrovites, pulled up in the area to cover for losses and maintain the defense. β NOELREPORTS πͺπΊ πΊπ¦ (@NOELreports) July 11, 2023

In other words, nothing. Good.

Ales Pushkin was sentenced last year to five years in prison on charges of "rehabilitation of Nazism" and "abuse of state symbols" because of the portraits of Belarusians who fought against the Soviet Union.
A reminder that the Belarus regime is only slightly less horrible than Putinβs.
x Heartbroken to learn that Belarusian artist & political prisoner Ales Pushkin died last night. Although his family does not yet know the details, it is clear that he has become yet another tragic victim of Lukashenka's regime. I offer my deepest condolences to his wife & family. pic.twitter.com/2lCEWuqRcL β Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya (@Tsihanouskaya) July 11, 2023
x In 1999, Ales Pushkin held his most famous performance called "Pus for the president". He overturned a cart with manure in front of the Lukashenka administration. For this performance, the artist was sentenced to two years of probation. pic.twitter.com/RZeAGh7TUE β Hanna Liubakova (@HannaLiubakova) July 11, 2023

I think they might want to widen that turn a bit. It looks like that downtown Chicago chase scene from the Blues Brothers.
