Vladimir Andonov, part of the notorious Wagner Group of Russian mercenaries, was said to be involved in the shooting of Ukrainian prisoners of war during fighting in the Donas back in 2014. The 44-year-old, who is from the Buryatia region of Russia’s Far East, is believed to have been shot dead in the Kharkiv region of eastern Ukraine.

The army has also lost 211 warplanes, 176 helicopters, 2,395 motor vehicles and fuel tankers, 13 vessels, 551 unmanned aerial vehicles, 53 units of special equipment, and 125 cruise missiles. It comes as Ukraine reportedly wiped out two of Putin’s generals in a single strike – bringing the death toll of top-rank Russian commanders to 12. Lieutenant General Roman Berdnikov, 47, and Major General Roman Kutuzov were allegedly killed in the same ambush in eastern Ukraine on Sunday.
