Russian losses in the Sumy direction
According to a representative of the State Border Guard Service, the number of attempts to breach the Ukrainian border by small groups of the enemy has significantly decreased due to losses. Russian occupiers are trying to expand the area of hostilities, but Ukrainian defenders are providing effective resistance and inflicting significant losses on the enemy.
'The enemy has suffered heavy losses, including dozens killed and wounded. Its activity has noticeably decreased, probably due to the loss of manpower.'
The representative of the State Border Guard Service noted that the occupiers are increasingly using quad bikes and motorcycles for movement, which indicates a general weakening of their positions.
Messages about significant losses of Russian occupiers in the Sumy direction confirm the success of the defensive strategy of the Ukrainian military. In trying to develop hostilities, the enemy suffered defeat and is forced to reduce activity due to the loss of combat capability.Read also
