Ukraine takes out hundreds of Russian soldiers

Ukraine has taken out hundreds of Russian soldiers within a few hours. This reports The Kyiv Independent with reference to the morning update of the Ukrainian General Staff.

According to Ukrainian accounts, Russia has lost 590 of its soldiers within the last 24 hours. This brings Russian losses since the escalation of the war of aggression in late February 2022 to a total of 270,350 soldiers. In addition, according to Ukraine, Russia has lost 4,584 tanks, 8,792 armed/armored vehicles, 8,444 vehicles/tankers, 766 multiple rocket launchers, 517 air defense systems, 315 aircraft, 316 helicopters, 4,650 drones, and 18 boats. Ukraine rarely talks about its own losses.

This information comes from a party to the conflict and has not yet been independently verified / confirmed. For this reason, the report must be evaluated with reservations. In war, it can be advantageous for parties to make false statements about the course of the conflict in order to strengthen their own position or weaken the position of the opponent.
