The United States tried to prevent Ukraine from killing the head of the General Staff of the Russian Federation – media

At the end of April, Valery Gerasimov arrived in Izyum, Ukrainian media reported about the attack of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Russian military positions, at that time.

The United States tried to prevent Ukraine from killing Russian Chief of Staff Valery Gerasimov during his visit to the war zone in Ukraine, according to an investigation by The New York Times.

US officials found out that Gen. Valery Gerasimov planned a trip to the front lines, but withheld this information from the Ukrainians, fearing that an attempt on his life could lead to war between the United States and Russia, the newspaper wrote.

However, the Ukrainian side still found out about the trip. After an internal debate, Washington took the emergency step of asking Ukraine to stop the attack.

“We told them not to do it,” said a senior US official. “We said, ‘Hey, this is too much.’ The message came late. The Ukrainian military told the Americans that they had launched an attack on the general’s position. Dozens of Russians died during the strike, officials said,” the publication said .

However, General Gerasimov was not among the dead. After that, Russian military leaders reduced their visits to the front.

On April 28, Ukrainian journalists reported from their sources that Gerasimov arrived in Izyum to personally command the occupation forces of the Russian Federation.

Several Ukrainian figures and bloggers, including former Interior Minister Arsen Avakov, have claimed that the Ukrainian Armed Forces attacked the field headquarters of the command of Russian troops near Izyum when Gerasimov was there. Allegedly, the chief of the Russian General Staff was seriously injured.

Recall that on Saturday, December 17, Russian troops shelled the village of Stepanovka in the suburbs of Kherson from a mortar, hitting the humanitarian aid headquarters.
