Reuters: Russian Black Sea commander Sokolov shown on video call after Ukraine said it killed him
MOSCOW (Reuters) -Admiral Viktor Sokolov, the commander of Russia's Black Sea Fleet, was shown on Russian state television on Tuesday attending a defence leaders' meeting remotely, a day after Ukrainian special forces said they had killed him.
In video and photographs released by the defence ministry, Sokolov was shown as one of several fleet commanders on video apparently joining an in-person meeting of Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu and other army chiefs, although not speaking. It was not clear when the video was filmed.

WNU missed the point as usual.
WNU misses the point on Thomas Edison. I did too for decades upon decades. Tough lesson to get wrong.
God DAMN you are a wise man! Go have yourself a dosequiz.
I was purposefully oblique, but nonetheless truthful.
Stay thirsty
Let's see him talk
Stay dry. Ur boss like it rough
People thought maybe the Kremlins used older footage. Outtakes from stuff they previously shot, but did not use. It is a way of getting obviously a short term propaganda victory.
The Russians may have put out false information on his death (if he did not die) to try to trace leaks.
Sokolov might be one of the guys you do not want to kill anyway.
"PROPPED UP: After Putin’s press secretary Dmitry Peskov told RU media that he "does not have information about the alleged death of Black Sea Fleet Commander Sokolov”. Minutes later, the RU MoD posted photos of an unmoving, unblinking Admiral Sokolov supposedly ‘attending' a video conference."
We shall see.
If he is not alive, what does it say?
Blow up an empty building, write up a list of 100 killed officers, hold a press conference.
Rinse and repeat.
NAFO must be fed every week or they turn into gremlins.
It is the Russian fleet at the bottom of the Black Sea. So about those casualties
Empty ...yeah sure lol
