VLADIMIR Putin’s remaining troops are being forced to wade through piles of fallen comrades as Russia faced its deadliest day of fighting. Moscow lost over 2,000 soldiers in the past 24 hours, according to Ukraine’s defiant military, but Putin’s men are still storming through the country at an alarming rate.
Russia’s staggering death toll marks the Russian tyrant’s most damaging period of his over 1,000-day-old conflict so far. The previous highest was 1,950 on November 12, with the General Staff of the Armed Forces stating Thursday saw 2,030 deaths. It proves Putin’s meat grinder approach is still miserably failing, with over 738,000 Russian soldiers now dying under Vlad’s orders.
Despite the harrowing figures continuing to soar, Russia has found success on the battlefield. According to the US-based Institute for the Study of War, Russia has managed to gain just under 100 square miles in the past month, capturing territory the size of two football pitches every minute.
Russian forces have focused their blitz attacks around Kupiansk, in northeastern Kharkiv province, and Khurakove in southern Donbas. UK Defence Secretary John Healey has warned the 600-mile frontline is now at the most unstable it has been since February 2022.
Ukraine is also taking hope from their own set of figures, which say they have blasted thousands of Russian war weapons over the past few years. Almost 20,000 drones, 10,000 tanks, and hundreds of warships, planes, and helicopters have all been eliminated from the dictator’s arsenal, the Armed Forces say.
Despite Vlad’s downfall appearing to be drawing closer several times this conflict, he has continuously found more brainwashed troops and created terrifying new weapons to use on Ukraine. Putin has even called on his pals in North Korea for extra support to fight back against a surging Ukraine.
The Kremlin has also been hard at work creating a new chilling hypersonic missile, which Putin has already unleashed on Ukraine. The feared “Oreshnik” has been described as far superior to any other weapon in Russia’s arsenal, and Putin has even claimed it can turn almost anything it hits into dust.
The despot has threatened to attack the West with the weapon “if necessary”, and the Kremlin is also said to have ordered the deadly 16,000mph Satan 2 to be battle-ready, sparking fears of a major escalation in the war.
