The losses of the Russian army, which suffered a great defeat at the front against the Ukrainian army, do not fall off the world’s agenda! It is wondered what the real loss of the Russian army, which is said to have lost 100,000 soldiers only in and around Bakhmut, is. Bretton-Gordon, the former commander of the British Army, said that the losses of the Russian army could be much higher.
Ukraine has managed to liberate most of the occupied territories since the beginning of the war. The Russian army is now barely keeping the war going in eastern Ukraine! Russian leader Putin, who has ammunition and equipment problems, is losing most of his soldiers! Although Putin is in search of new soldiers, he has difficulty convincing Russian youth. Therefore, he continues to enact repressive laws for them to go to the army.
Russia’s loss of soldiers has become even more curious with top-secret documents emanating from the USA. According to the top secret documents released from the USA, the military loss of the Russian invaders reaches 250.000. This is more than the number of soldiers lost in many wars in history! According to an estimate compiled by the US Defence Intelligence Agency, at least 35,500-43,000 Russian soldiers were killed by a direct attack at the front! 154,000-180,000 Russian soldiers died in hospital after being wounded!
Serhii Cherevatyi, a spokesman for the Eastern Grouping of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, says that in the last 9 months, 100,000 Russian soldiers have died in and around Bakhmut alone.
While Russian military losses caused great controversy among the occupiers, Colonel Hamish de Bretton Gordon, former commander of the British Army’s 1st Royal Tank Regiment, made remarkable remarks. In an article he wrote, Gordon said that Putin’s speech at the Victory Day parade on 9 May was “hopeless, even misleading”.
Saying that a real war against Russia has been launched, the British commander said that Russian losses could be much higher. Gordon said:
“The only person driving towards that goal is Putin himself. His army is in a shambolic condition, with multiple reports indicating that troops are fighting without adequate body armor. Young men are conscripted and thrown into the meat grinder of the Donbas, backed by antiquated tanks. They face forces combining modern Western equipment with significant new tactical innovations.
