Russian Generals Start Fight Against Putin

Military commanders have turned against the Kremlin and are preparing a retreat in the Kherson region?

The Russian occupiers appear to be in serious trouble and have announced the alleged regrouping on the left bank of the Kherson region for a reason. The cancelled "redeployment" could indeed have been part of the preparations for the withdrawal of the Russian troops.

But it was cancelled because of some misunderstandings between Vladimir Putin and the Russian military command. The head of the Kremlin gave the order not to retreat, and the generals, seeing the real war, actually thought about leaving.

Russian opposition politician Gennady Gudkov told Channel 24.

Russian propagandists said on 13 November that Dnieper military commanders were allegedly regrouping east of the Dnieper.

"There are signs that Russia is preparing to withdraw from Kherson. They are thinking about it. Probably the situation there is 'hot' and the inability to repel offensive attacks by the AFU," the Russian opposition politician noted.

We would like to point out that reports about the actual withdrawal of the occupants were published by Russia's top propaganda agencies RIA Novosti and TASS. According to Gudkov, these media are very conservative and never publish such important decisions that change and influence the position of Russian society regarding the war in Ukraine.

A few minutes later, however, the news of the 'regrouping' suddenly disappeared from all Russian media. Some websites said the news had been published "falsely".

"Having assessed the consequences of such an ill-considered move, they urgently deleted the news. They wanted to be as good as possible, but it turned out as usual - a mess," Gudkov stressed.

Moreover, the Russians could assume that the message about "regrouping" would boost the morale of the Ukrainian army and its allies, so they "accidentally" deleted it.

The battle between Putin and the generals

According to Gudkov, such resignations could indicate a struggle between Vladimir Putin and the Russian General Staff.

The head of the Kremlin demands that the Russian military achieve success on the battlefield and does not allow it to back down a single step.

The military commanders see the real war: when resources run out, people die and moods change, they are ready to withdraw the Russian army to "better" positions.

"There is a struggle within the establishment and the question of "what to do about the war: send tens to hundreds of thousands to their deaths or try to regroup? I think this struggle is reflected in the contradictory orders of the main propaganda structures - RIA Novosti and TASS," Gennady Gudkov concluded.
