    Now, I must tell you kids, Admiral Sokolov has laryngitis and a bad back, so he won’t be saying anything or doing anything.

    Russian authorities have been known to doctor video evidence to show dead, injured, or out-of-favor commanders still going about their business. Equally, however, Ukrainian commanders have previously announced the deaths of Russian military leaders who have turned out to be still alive.
