Over the three winter months, as Syrsky claims, more enemy soldiers were eliminated than the enemy was able to recruit into its ranks.
The total losses of Russian troops, according to his data, over the three winter months amounted to about 92,850 killed and wounded, which averages 1031 people per day.
Also, during this period, the enemy lost 322 tanks, 430 armored combat vehicles, 2967 artillery systems, 110 multiple rocket launch systems, 55 air defense systems, 5 aircraft, 1 helicopter, 65,269 operational-tactical level drones, one ship and one submarine, 11,927 units of automotive equipment, and 65 units of special equipment.
Oleksandr Syrsky also reported that active and effective actions are being carried out in the Oleksandrivka and Huliaipole directions. Despite statements from the Russian leadership, control over Kupiansk is being strengthened and the number of enemy sabotage groups in the city is decreasing. The containment of the enemy also continues in the Pokrovsk-Myrnohrad agglomeration area.
