Russia Vs Ukraine War Update Live | Putin Appoints General Surovikin As Commander | News18 Live Russia appoints General Sergei Surovikin, nicknamed General Armageddon, as its new Commander in Ukraine. His appointment was announced hours after the attack on the Crimea bridge. And the new leader's first day at work saw Ukraine hit by a huge wave of Russian missiles - one of the widest series of strikes witnessed for months. But Gen Surovikin is not actually new to the faltering war effort. He's been commanding troops on the front in southern Ukraine and, the day before the war began, was sanctioned by Europe for his military influence and relationship with President Putin. This appears to be the first time Russia has officially named a commander for its entire military operation in Ukraine - before that, there were media reports that the post was held by General Alexander Dvornikov. #russiaukrainewar #russia #putin #englishnewslive #latestnewslive #news18live n18oc_world
