Record weekly figure for enemy losses

The command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has released updated statistics on the losses of Russian occupation forces. According to General Staff data, the enemy lost 16,130 servicemen during the period from 1 to 7 November. This figure is the highest among weekly results since the beginning of the full-scale invasion.

Daily destruction of a motor rifle regiment's strength

The General Staff emphasised that the dynamics of enemy destruction allow it to be stated that Ukrainian defenders are disabling a number of enemy troops daily that corresponds to the strength of an average motor rifle regiment.

«Цифри говорять самі за себе: у середньому понад 2300 окупантів щодоби, або майже сотня щогодини» (The figures speak for themselves: on average, over 2,300 occupiers per day, or almost a hundred per hour), the official statement from the Ukrainian command reads.

Causes of high losses among Russian troops

The high level of losses in the Russian army is explained by the tactics of its command, which continues to send troops into assaults. Meanwhile, the Defence Forces of Ukraine continue to counter Russian aggression.
