Kostenko commented on the information about the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine/ArmiaInform
According to Arakhamia, the average figure per day is from 200 to 500 killed and many more wounded in the ranks of Ukrainian defenders. People's Deputy and “cyborg” Roman Kostenko does not quite agree with this figure, and told what the massive losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at the front depend on.
People's Deputy Roman Kostenko told Channel 24 about this. He also noted that David Arakhamia's statement about numerous losses in the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine can simply be explained incorrectly.
in general – much less, – Roman Kostenko reassured.
This figure is spread across the entire front line in Ukraine, and not just in the Donbass. Perhaps this is information on one particular day, the people's deputy adds.
“When my brothers and I, in the direction of Nikolaev, we captured a bridgehead with the Ingulets River, that we did not have to force it during further counter-offensive actions – we had a lot of losses , because the enemy fired from all weapons, used all types of artillery mounts,” explains Kostenko.
How big losses occur among the Armed Forces of Ukraine
Where there are massed blows from the enemy, there are slightly more losses, the people's deputy explains. Now the front line has leveled off a bit, the guys have already significantly “buried”, so it will become more difficult for the invaders to deliver critical strikes, he adds.
According to Roman Kostenko, it was probably a certain breakthrough or offensive, where we lost a lot of our defenders , but to say that in general we have such huge losses is not worth it.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine are effectively counterattacking in the Kherson region
On June 15, the American Institute for the Study of War announced that Ukrainian soldiers successfully attacked the Russians in the South and forced them to go on the defensive. According to researchers, 18 kilometers are left to the temporarily occupied territories of the Kherson region of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Subsequently, on the air of the national telethon, the mayor of the captured Melitopol, Ivan Fedorov, said that our defenders were as close as possible to Kherson. In particular, the soldiers are only 10-15 kilometers away from the city.
The liberation of Kherson is a strategic goal
The Armed Forces of Ukraine have a strategic initiative and are moving towards the temporarily occupied Kherson. Thanks to the counter-offensive actions of the Ukrainian defenders, a number of communities in the Kherson region were fired.
The soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are now 18 kilometers from the regional center, Oleksiy Arestovich said earlier. Such a distance allows Ukrainians to inflict massive artillery strikes on enemy positions.
