Tolstoy defends the aging Russian commander, Mikhail Kutuzov, who is criticized from all sides for being old, for not being dashing and charismatic, and for not being decisive in ways others think he should be.

But as Andrei’s lifeless body rests at the front of the stage, ignored as the cast erects an ornate podium for Kutuzov to lie in state, Tcherniakov leaves the audience with a hopeless message.

Ukraine claims to have killed 12 generals, apart from Kutuzov.

Ukraine's military also confirmed the killing of Gen Kutuzov, without offering further details about the circumstances.
