The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, called the information that he is sick "empty rumors". The head of the Russian republic posted a message on his Telegram channel.
The text of the video posted on the channel notes the increasingly frequent rumors about the illness of the head of Chechnya.
"Our time is predetermined, we must live it consciously, without spreading empty rumors and sowing discord. Don't waste your life on empty things," Kadyrov wrote in a message to the video.
Kadyrov's previous post on Telegram was on May 17. In it, he reported on a group of volunteers who had set off from Grozny airport to the combat zone in Ukraine.
"These brave men made a conscious choice to defend the interests of our homeland and civilians", he wrote at the time, noting that the detachment included not only residents of the republic, but also representatives from other regions of Russia.
„This emphasizes the unity and cohesion of our multinational people in the face of an external threat. Candidates for service in the legendary special unit „Akhmat“ of the Ministry of Defense of Russia have behind them special training received in the forge of patriots of our great Fatherland - the Russian University of Special Forces named after the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, where they acquired the necessary skills and knowledge to effectively conduct combat missions“, Kadyrov wrote.
He emphasized that the volunteers under the guidance of experienced instructors have undergone accelerated combat training courses, and the Regional Public Foundation named after the Hero of Russia Akhmat-Hadzhi Kadyrov has provided them with combat equipment and everything necessary.
