Because of losses and panic among russian troops in Syria, the Kremlin has dismissed General Sergey Kisely, the commander of its Syrian grouping.
Earlier, General Kisel was distinguished by his failed actions during the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, for which he was also dismissed from his post and then sent on a business trip to Syria.
To replace Kisely and help the Bashar al-Assad regime, moscow sent another military commander, General Aleksandr Chaiko, who commanded a group of russian troops in Syria in 2017-2019 and has already arrived in Syria.
The commander of the russian navy, Admiral Aleksandr Moiseev, also appeared at the naval base in Tartus.
After three days of successful offensives by pro-Turkish forces in Syria, russian troops suffered significant losses, and some units of the aggressor state were surrounded. Hundreds of muscovites are reported missing in Syria.
