Intelligence Japan, based on data collected in cooperation with the United States and Europe, has established that almost 20 Russian generals have been eliminated in the war in Ukraine since the full-scale invasion.

«ace450» writes about this with reference to Nikkei Asia.
Former Chief of Staff of Japan’s Ground Self-Defense Forces Kiefumi Iwata believes that the number of casualties among Russian generals will be «much higher.»
According to him, a large number of murders among the highest ranks of the Soviet Union is due to the superiority of the Ukrainian armed forces in cyberspace.
The Ukrainian military can find out about the location of the military.
In addition, Russian tactics involve sending generals directly to the battlefield. Iwata noted that the death of a representative of the highest command staff of the Russian army weakens the morale of the soldiers.
A high-ranking representative of Japanese intelligence told journalists that another factor in the high mortality among Russian generals is the cooperation of residents of Donetsk and Luhansk regions with the Armed Forces.
«In the two eastern regions, there may be informers who pass information to Ukraine,» he said.
