Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu fired and replaced

🎦 00:09-01:09⏩

Jonathan reports that Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu has either been fired or moved to a different role, with sources suggesting he's been replaced by someone named Belusov. Shoigu has potentially been appointed as Secretary of the Security Council, replacing Nikolai Patrushev, a long-standing ally of Putin and a prominent figure within the FSB and KGB. This news, shared by OSINT defender, has been met with scepticism from the Russian population.

Jonathan's Analysis of Shoigu's replacement

🎦 01:09-02:12⏩

Jonathan notes that while Shoigu's removal was anticipated given the recent arrests and investigations into corruption within the Ministry of Defence, this move doesn't appear to be linked to those issues. Instead, he believes it reflects deeper concerns regarding the war's progression. Although Russia has launched an offensive in Kharkiv with some success, this personnel change suggests underlying problems. Jonathan points out that Shoigu, a close Putin ally who enjoyed activities like hunting with the Russian President, wouldn't be removed if the war was going well. He believes this decision indicates significant issues within the Russian war machine, likening the situation to Shakespeare's "something is rotten in the state of Denmark" from Hamlet.
