The Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov is seen as a ruthless army leader. However, when tragedy strikes himself, he seems to have a soft core, as it turns out. According to Russian sources, his cousin and close ally Adam Delimkhanov was wounded in a Ukrainian attack.
Delimkhanov is a full supporter of the Kremlin, has been a member of the State Duma for Putin’s United Russia party since 2007 and is fighting in the war in Ukraine. In the Zaporizhia region, he and his troops would have come under fire. 200 people are said to have died – it is unclear whether Kadyrov’s cousin survived the attack, writes the independent Russian-Latvian news portal Meduza.
Promises reward to Ukrainian intelligence
“I cannot contact Adam Delimkhanov myself. He is not answering,” Kadyrov writes on Telegram. “I ask Ukrainian intelligence to share information about the exact location and positions of the attack so that I can find my dear brother. I promise a generous reward and ask for your help.” , the self-proclaimed Ukraine hater desperately offers.
Contradictory information
While information is already circulating in the Ukrainian media that Kadyrov’s cousin has died, the Kremlin is holding back.
Meanwhile, parliament leader Vyacheslav Volodin was said to have received a sign of life from Delimkhanov. But then the Chechen commander Apti Alaudinov wrote that Kadyrov ordered him to find Delimkhanov “by any means”. For this, all units of the Chechen army Akhmat would even be withdrawn from the town of Marjinka in the disputed eastern Ukrainian region of Donetsk.
Kremlin extremely concerned
People are very concerned, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said. They would wait for new information. The politician dismissed the information from Ukraine, according to which Delimkhanov is no longer alive, as a “lie”.
Russia has been waging an aggressive war against Ukraine for more than 15 months. Kadyrov’s fighters, notorious for their brutality, are particularly active in Donetsk, where Ukraine’s counter-offensive is underway to liberate the occupied territories.
