A senior Russian military commander in Ukraine who was sacked in January will likely return to the battlefield amid tense infighting inside the Russian general staff, according to the latest assessment from British military intelligence.
General Mikhail Teplinsky, commander of Russia’s corps of airborne troops, the VDV, was dismissed from the theater in January 2023. One of Russia’s key operational commanders in Ukraine, he was in charge of the relatively successful withdrawal from west of the Dnipro River in November 2022. He had been praised as a “capable and pragmatic commander,” British intelligence said after his firing.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has cycled through several commanders for his troubled nearly 15-month campaign in Ukraine, after the Kremlin’s hopes for a quick victory were dashed and the operation devolved into a grinding war of attrition with relatively small gains for invading Russian forces.
