Russian Admiral Appears Alive After Ukraine Claims He Was Killed

Ukraine claimed the commander of Russia's Black Sea Fleet was killed in a missile strike, but Russia has since released multiple videos showing him alive.
The videos feature Admiral Viktor Sokolov attending meetings and award ceremonies, but their authenticity is disputed.
Russia eventually confirmed Sokolov is alive after initially refusing to comment on his status.
Ukraine acknowledged uncertainty about whether the strike killed Sokolov, backtracking on their earlier definitive claim.
The conflicting accounts have led to skepticism about the credibility of both sides regarding Sokolov's fate.
