The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine revealed that Putin’s army had suffered the greatest losses on Wednesday, October 26 in the Bahmut and Avdiivka directions.

A detailed breakdown of the 246th day of the war shows that the loss of the three Russian tanks now means Ukraine has destroyed 2631, while the destruction of 13 more APCs now means that Putin’s army has now lost 5364 in total.

The destruction of another 19 Russian drones (UAVs) takes the number destroyed by Ukraine to 1398 in total.
