Most tweets in French. English posts generally saying there were French security forces there.

Take it for what it's worth, but there is other stuff out there saying he was in the area a few weeks ago.

Twitter

quote:

#BREAKING—#MARIUPOL—Military officers from #France, #Germany, #UK, and #Sweden are currently on the territory of the #Azovstal industrial complex and are requesting #Russia|n forces to grant them a green corridor to evacuate. (per journalist German #Vladimirov).

quote:

I cannot confirm, as this is all happening to fast for me to track, but #VeternsToday is reporting (#unconfirmed) that a #US 3-star general has been captured by #Russia|n forces in #Mariupol, where he was leading #Azov in battle. h/t

I’d normally call this propaganda but the brain trust at the Pentagon don’t know shite about military strategy these days. I could see a general being dumb enough to get caught, though it strains credulity for him to be “leading” Azov as opposed to “advising” Azov.

Like this shite was going to end well anyway.

I’m willing to hand over our entire political leadership to the Russians in exchange for oil right about now. Helps solve the problem of how to get Trump back into office.

So an American 3 star general was leading the Nazis into battle?

There's pics from last week of a uniformed officer from the UK leading UKR troops. Why would a US General shock anyone?

Exactly. I could see a a post-command LTC/COL but a flag officer? I'd be shocked if that is accurate.

I'm seeing Twitter reports that the Ghost of Kyiv has completed a daring rescue of the U.S. 3 star general who was leading the Azov regiment.

Crisis averted.
