AFU Defeated 75% Of Russian Marines Near Pavlivka: New Details Of Occupiers' Losses

The 155th Brigade lost almost all its assault units.

The other day, Russian occupiers from the 155th Marine Brigade of the Pacific Fleet of Russia wrote a letter to the governor. They stated that in a few days of the operation near Pavlivka near Vuhledar, they lost about 300 people, that is, they suffered enormous losses.

Their assault squads have almost gone

Not only the governor had to respond to public statements, but also the Russian Ministry of Defense and, of course, propagandists, because such figures had to be explained, and in the case of the Russians - to lie. Yevhen Karas, a serviceman of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and a public figure, told Channel 24 about this.

He noted that it is necessary to understand that the 300 killed and wounded occupiers, which were discussed in the letter, are only from this 155th Brigade. But this is not the only brigade that fought near Pavlivka, not by itself, so the losses of the Russians in these battles are even more significant. However, even if we consider the hysteria of the Marines, you can learn many interesting things.

So, according to Karas, among these 300 people, in fact, all 300 military men were from assault squads. Sources that the Ukrainian military found in the Russian army, which, in his opinion, can be trusted, note that indeed 75% of the participants in the assault from the ranks of the marines died. However, this was not a surprise for them, because, as they themselves said, the Russians have always had significant losses.

“What do we understand - if 75% were killed, it means that 400-500 troops went on the assault, and there were also headquarters and others, that is, about 900-1000 people participated in total. Accordingly, the brigade is now left with headquarters, water carriers and a drunken political instructor, but there are no assault troops left,” Karas noted.

Reaction to the letter from the Marines in Russia

The Ukrainian military stressed that this letter really threw the Russians into depression, but they needed some explanation. So, propagandists immediately began to tell that it was all fiction and only 20 fighters died, which is also a lot.

But the Russian Ministry of Defense went even further and stated that during the entire war, the 155th Brigade lost only 1% of its personnel. In addition, in this operation near Vuhledar, they changed 9 Ukrainians for 1 Russian marine.

As Karas noted, both the Russian military and propagandists themselves cannot stand such an absurdity. They are already openly laughing at their Ministry of Defense and its statements. That is, this is the fall and disintegration of the Russian command and control.

“They say that these are probably wonderful Russian generals, capable of having the proportions of attackers and defenders 1 to 9 in an offensive operation. It's just a fairy tale, a fantastic lie, it's indecent even by Russian standards,” said Yevhen Karas.
