Dudaev admits editing video about participation of Kadyrov's children in battles
The video showing Ramzan Kadyrov's sons fighting was compiled from several videos, Akhmed Dudaev, the Chechen Press Minister, has stated, calling it "the usual editors' work." Kadyrov expressed no concern for his children when he learned about the shelling of Donetsk during their trip there, Dudaev has boasted.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that October 19, the head of Chechnya announced that his sons, Akhmat, Eli and Adam Kadyrov, have taken part in the hostilities in the special operation zone. The state TV channel of Chechnya released a report showing Kadyrov's sons in a trench. Commentators treated the video as an element of Kadyrov's publicity and doubted that the footage was really filmed during the battle on the frontline.
Akhmed Dudaev said that the videos about the trip of Kadyrov's children to Donbass were edited. In confirmation, he showed the source records – the videos he sent to the head of Chechnya on October 17 about the presence of Kadyrov's sons on the frontline.
He called the sounds of gunfire heard in the video "return fire." "That is, some return fire is heard from afar ... And then – this is the work of the editing directors," Dudaev has explained.
In another video, Dudaev told that Kadyrov's children visited Donetsk at the time when the city was being shelled.
On October 3, Kadyrov announced that his three sons were preparing to be sent to Ukraine, where they would be stationed in the most difficult sections of the frontline. This caused confusion among social media users, who pointed out that it was too early for the children to go to the war zone.
