Russia, trying to conquer Ukraine, does not take into account its own lives soldier. Our defenders destroy the enemy in units and brigades.

Russian media reported on one of the cases of huge losses among the ranks of the occupying army. Thus, the 155th Brigade of the enemy Marines “lost” half of its personnel during almost two years of war in Ukraine.

Actually destroyed

According to media reports, the number of wounded, dead, and missing among the soldiers of the elite 155th Marine Brigade is more than 1,450 people. This is half the group's full-time strength. Among them are 234 dead military personnel. The media note that this is four times more than the losses of this unit during the ten years of war in Chechnya.

It is known that among the dead are 18 officers, including the head of the armored service Lieutenant Colonel Sergei Moskvichev, four majors and five captains.

What is known about the 155th Russian Marine Brigade

Participated in battles from the first days of the invasion of Ukraine. The brigade's “Black Berets” suffered significant losses during the fighting in the Kyiv region. However, the biggest losses in the brigade occurred during several attempts to attack Ugledar, Donetsk region of Ukraine, since the beginning of autumn 2022. The Institute for the Study of War clarified that since February 24, 2022, this unit was virtually destroyed. It has been updated 8 times. At the end of March 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin awarded the 155th Marine Brigade the title of “Guards”. Ukrainian authorities accuse fighters from this brigade of committing war crimes in Bucha.

The enemy does not have time to prepare black packages

The Institute for the Study of War considers the efforts of the Russian authorities to replenish their occupation army in Ukraine with fresh forces in vain. After all, the level of recruitment of new soldiers is likely lower than the current level of losses. Analysts argue that the occupying forces could suffer losses along the entire front in Ukraine at a rate close to the rate at which Russia is now creating new forces.

According to Russian media, from the beginning In the fall of 2023, the number of deaths among the invaders per day increased from 80 to 110 people. In just two weeks, the occupiers lost 14 senior officers – colonels and lieutenant colonels. Moscow suffered similar losses among high-ranking military personnel only in the summer of 2022, when the United States began supplying Ukraine with long-range HIMARS missiles. This time, journalists explain the increase in mortality among senior officers by the storming of Avdeevka and the appearance of ATACMS at the front.
