A detailed breakdown of the war shows that the loss of two more Russian Armoured Personnel Carriers (APCs) now means Ukraine has destroyed 5930, while the destruction of another two Russian artillery systems now means that Putin’s army has now lost 1931 in total.
The news of the reported Russian losses comes after it revealed that the Ministry of Defence in Belarus had undertaken a snap check of the army’s combat readiness, as the country continues to cite the border with Ukraine as its biggest concern.
Belarus’ Ministry of Defence announced on Tuesday, December 13 that the country’s armed services were undergoing an inspection.
The Ministry of Defence said: “The events will be comprehensive.
“The troops will have to move to the designated areas as soon as possible, carry out their engineering equipment, organize protection and defence, as well as build bridge crossings across the Neman and Berezina rivers.”
