The administrator of the military Telegram channel “Voivode Speaks,” Ka-52 pilot Alexey Zemtsov (call sign “Voivode”), who was previously reported to have “committed suicide,” has allegedly “come back to life.”

Unshaven and disheveled, he recorded a new video. It turned out that Voivode did not want to return to a pre-trial detention center (SIZO) over an assault case involving the lover of his wife, and therefore allegedly fabricated a story about his suicide. He claimed that a body was supposedly already somewhere, meaning there was no need to search for him alive.

In the new video, he says that he was allegedly persuaded not to commit suicide by friends and parents, and that he now plans to “continue fighting after going through the SIZO.”

It is also noted that the previous time he was supposedly sent from SIZO to “the special military operation,” but in reality he ended up attending training courses in the Belgorod region. What happened to the folder of compromising material on Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Aerospace Forces Vladimir Kravchenko, which Voivode had promised to leave next to his body, was not addressed in the video.
