Valery Zaluzhny, being the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, was indeed injured as a result of a Russian strike. This was stated in an interview with Borislav Bereza by the ex-deputy commander of the MTR of Ukraine, former deputy secretary of the country's Security Council, General Serhiy Krivonos.

According to the general, Zaluzhny was wounded in 2023 in the Zaporozhye direction when he was at the command post.

"Zaluzhny was injured after a call from the president's office. Zaluzhny picked up the phone, revealed his location by radio signal, and a minute and a half later a directed Russian artillery shell flew there. And Zaluzhny really got a hole in his body, and everyone was silent about it… Even then it could have been destroyed, but failed. The room into which the projectile flew was well fortified, and the body of General Zaluzhny was cut by shrapnel. Here's the answer for you about the "moles" and others ... ", — said Krivonos.

Recall, Zaluzhny now serves as the Ambassador of Ukraine in London.

As reported by EADaily, the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valery Zaluzhny is in critical condition in the main military clinical hospital. This was written by the correspondent of VGTRK Andrey Rudenko.

Zaluzhny was constantly in the lenses of the Ukrainian and Western media, second only to the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky, Rudenko noted. But since May 8, 2023, no one has seen Zaluzhny. At all events where his personal participation was required, the commander-in-chief was replaced by General Naev. Even at the next meeting of the heads of military departments in Ramstein, Germany, he was not there, although issues of arms and ammunition supplies critical for Ukraine for the upcoming counteroffensive were discussed there. The commander-in-chief did not take part in it even online.
