The Ministry of Defense of Russia announced today (Saturday) the latest casualties of the Ukrainian forces in the war, and announced the control of new areas in Donbass and Kharkiv.
According to RCO News Agency, the Ministry of Defense of Russia reported that the Russian forces took control of the town of “Korakhovka” in Donbass and the town of “Pershatronovoe” in the Kharkiv region.
The Russian Defense Ministry also announced that the casualties of the Ukrainian army in one day reached 2,045 soldiers, including 800 in the area of responsibility of the Russian Southern Forces Group. The group improved its tactical position after repelling a counterattack by a Ukrainian air mobile brigade.
According to Sputnik, the Central Group of Russian Armed Forces repelled five counterattacks by Ukrainian forces and Ukraine lost 535 of its military personnel. Ukrainian forces also lost a Grad multiple rocket launcher and an armored personnel carrier, among other pieces of military hardware.
In the current situation, developments in the field are not in favor of Kyiv, and on the eve of the American elections this week, additional pressure will be applied to the Ukrainian army. Ukraine is worried that with the possible victory of “Donald Trump” the former president of the United States and the candidate of the Republicans, he will be forced to negotiate peace according to the request of the Kremlin, and he is trying to make the most of that day.
Earlier, in a telephone conversation with General Charles Brown, the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the US Armed Forces, “Alexander Sirsky”, the commander of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, informed him about the latest developments in the war with Russia.
“I briefed the American colleague on the situation on the front line, which remains difficult,” Sirsky said. Using air superiority and long-range firepower, the enemy does not stop offensive actions in several directions and has a significant advantage in artillery shells.
