Kadyrov Tried To Deny Hospitalization In Turkey With A Dubious Photo

Strange details were noticed in the footage.

After several days of silence and many rumors about Ramzan Kadyrov's health, he has once again made himself known. A post with a photo of him playing chess with his eldest son Akhmat appeared on his VKontakte page, writes "Dialogue.UA".

This is his first post after Turkish media reports that the Chechen leader was allegedly hospitalized during a vacation in Turkey. Before that, he disappeared for several days without any explanation.

In the photo caption, Kadyrov said he had played a friendly game with Chechnya's Minister of Sport and Physical Culture Akhmat Kadyrov.

It is not specified when exactly the photo was taken, which leaves room for speculation and great doubt.

The photo shows green foliage outside the window, typical of the spring months. At the same time, fresh photos and videos from Grozny show already darker, "summer" greenery. In addition, the photo shows Akhmat Kadyrov sitting in a hoodie by an open window, whereas in recent days the temperature in Chechnya has exceeded +30°, and such an outfit is clearly not appropriate for the weather.

It has been more than a week since Kadyrov's last public appearance, and rumors of his health problems spread after publications in Turkish publications.

They wrote that the head of Chechnya allegedly nearly drowned in the sea while vacationing in Bodrum and was taken to the hospital, so there is no real data about the Chechen leader's health condition and his current location.

The above-described attempt by Kadyrov to refute rumors of illness, like all previous similar ones, does not look convincing and does not contain any real facts.
