Mikhail Teplinsky was born in Mospyne, in what was then the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, in the Soviet Union, on 9 January 1969. In 1987 he entered and in 1991 graduated from the Ryazan Higher Airborne Command School. He served in the 106th Guards Airborne Division stationed in Tula. He commanded an airborne reconnaissance platoon and a reconnaissance company of the 137th Guards Airborne Regiment. From 1992 to 1993, he took part in the Transnistria War. From December 1994 to March 1995 he participated in the First Chechen War. He distinguished himself in battles while crossing the Sunzha River. During the period of hostilities, senior lieutenant Teplinsky had about 30 destroyed militants on his personal combat account. For courage and heroism shown during the performance of a special task, by decree of the President of Russia of 1 March 1995, Senior Lieutenant Teplinsky was awarded the title of Hero of the Russian Federation.[2] While still in Chechnya, he received a promotion in rank and position: he became the captain and head of intelligence of the parachute regiment.[2]
On 14 March 2017, by decree of the President of Russia, Teplinsky was appointed Chief of Staff - First Deputy Commander of the Southern Military District.[5] On 5 April 2019, Teplinsky was appointed Chief of Staff - First Deputy Commanding General of the Central Military District.[2] By Decree of the President of Russia dated in December 2021, Teplinsky was promoted to Colonel General.[5]
War in Ukraineedit
In June 2022, Teplinksy was appointed commanding general of the Russian Airborne Forces.[6] In January 2023, according to The Moscow Times, and to British Intelligence, Teplinsky was dismissed as the commanding general of the Russian Airborne Forces.[7][8] Kremlin Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov confirmed in April 2023 that Teplinsky remains commander of the airborne troops, and serves as a deputy commander of the Joint Grouping of Forces (the Russian troops in Ukraine).[9] In April 2023, the British government department believed his "turbulent career", including his return to a major role in Ukraine, was indicative of tensions arising within the Russian General Staff.[10] Indeed, while Valery Gerasimov formally retained his title of Chief of the General Staff in Ukraine in the aftermath of the Wagner Group rebellion, his public disappearance[citation needed] started rumours about Teplinsky taking over and actually running the war.[11]
Since 13 December 2022, Teplinsky has been under British sanctions.[12]

Teplinsky is married, with two sons and a daughter.
