In a videotape released by the ministry, Shoigu is seen awarding orders to Russian military labor force and traveling a ruined municipality together with quarter’s commander, Colonel- General Rustam Muradov. Shoigu, who has served as defiance minister since 2012, has come under harsh review over his performance in the conflict from pro- war attorneys.
