    There ain't no such rank. They mean colonel general.

  • From 2016, Dvornikov oversaw Russia's brutal intervention in the middle east that helped Syrian president Bashar al-Assad crush his enemies in the civil war

  • He is also believed to be man behind attack on Kramatorsk railway station Friday

  • Now, he has been ordered by Putin to take charge of seizing the whole of Donbas
