The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine revealed that Putin’s army had suffered the greatest losses on Saturday, September 1o in the Kharkiv and Donetsk direction.

A detailed breakdown shows that the loss of the 18 more Russian tanks now means Ukraine has destroyed 2154, while the destruction of four more Russian artillery systems now means that Putin’s army has now lost 1263 in total.

Three aircraft from Russia were also destroyed in Ukraine, meaning that Russian forces have now lost 242. One more helicopter was also shot down, meaning Ukraine has now reportedly destroyed 213.

The news of the major Russian losses comes after the Russian Defence Ministry claimed that they had seized a US armoured personnel carrier and destroyed two Ukrainian tanks.
