Putin dismisses the deputy minister of defense in Kherson, replaces him with the

Russian Deputy Defense Minister Dmitry Bulgakov has been dismissed from his post and transferred to another post.

Bulgakov will be replaced by Colonel General Mikhail Mizintsev, who previously held the post of head of Russia's National Defense Control Center, REL reports .

The Ukrainian military said Mizintsev led the siege of the Ukrainian Azov Sea port of Mariupol, which earned him the nickname "the butcher of Mariupol."

Mariupol was occupied by Russia in late May after most of the city was reduced to rubble and thousands of civilians were killed during the siege.

The Russian military leadership under Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu has recently come under fire in circles close to the Kremlin. About two weeks ago, Moscow's army was hastily withdrawn from Ukraine's eastern Kharkiv region under pressure from Ukrainian counteroffensives.
