A number of Telegram channels claimed this occurred a week ago, but Sladkov is a more credible source. Teplinsky appears to have been successful as the VDV commander, and he is popular among Russian channels, so this doesn't appear to be a performance-related change. 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting news. Sladkov confirms that the commander of the VDV Colonel General Mikhail Teplinsky was replaced by Lieutenant General Oleg Makarevich. It appears this change is associated with Gerasimov taking command of the war. https://t.co/UPRzY0RizR https://t.co/zGBJs3ynsQ https://t.co/hsqhhmO9OH — PolitiTweet.org

In comparison, Makarevich is a career ground forces officer who also commanded the Russia Navy's Coastal Troops, but, notably, he never served in the VDV. Sladkov says he is the most unsuitable choice. He did not have a previous command role in the war. 3/ https://t.co/8V3glE15vX — PolitiTweet.org
