Russia’s Shoigu Declares Kyiv’s Offensive ‘Failed In July’; 20,800 Soldiers, 10 Leopard Tanks Lost
By Hindustan Times
Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu said Ukraine lost nearly 21,000 troops in July alone. He attributed the failure of Ukraine’s much-hyped counteroffensive to Russian forces’ well-built defences. During the month, Ukraine lost 20,824 service members and 2,227 units of military equipment, including Western-supplied tanks and infantry fighting vehicles. Shoigu emphasized that the Western-supplied weapons have not brought success on the battlefield, only prolonging the conflict.
Here’s what others had to say:

“The real offensive is just getting started”
I believe them. Ukraine can lose troops way faster than that.
@LostSouLVL
Glory to Russia and all the Russian Armed Forces! Slava Rossiyi!
@JLSMaytham
Shoigu crediting Russia’s “well built and organised defences” for the Ukrainian failure doesn’t account for the fact that Kvyv forces have failed without even REACHING those defences!
@Patendyck76
Zelensky is the man who stood on a platform of Peace and the unity of all the peoples of Ukraine & then he met the US & here’s the result.

@kosalch8972
Russian soldiers should be standby and defensive , the comedian’s tanks will come invade Russian territory then destroy them.
@brotherVooDoo
Defense minister shoigu neglects to inform the press about the Ukrainian battle plan being leaked or there unseen casualty list or the mercenary units that have fled there cause.
@bewt09
Ukraine will say they lost nothing except grain deal . Only Russia is losing . Ukraine will say they are winning and counteroffensive yet to start.
@RobSmith-lv6jb
21000 in July. The Russian military should aim for 1000 each day, so a total of 31000 in August. I wish them every bit of success in reaching that target.
@Faiez-rh1gm
Ukrainian troops are literally digging their own graves on the battlefield. A group of Ukrainian Fighters got wiped out by their own mines in Donetsk. The incident happened when Kyiv’s forces were trying…
@chekeocha4923
Even without the minefields n defensive lines, the superior n extensive air support from Russia air force already disadvantage Ukrainian armies. They faced similar problems like the Chinese armies in the Korean war.
@grerovambrozoyuz9426
Russia always never under estimate the enemy to win straight. Also be super agile and dexerity, vital army plus. Develop all your weapons into laser. Make robots like gundam.😂 Make the impossible to be possible. So that you will be impossible for enemy to win against you. Number 1 pride to be. Be honest your casualties and next time avoid losses.

His conflict helps Rus to improve his fighting technique and strategy at the NAcO level and beyond! Think about how it was at the beginning and how it will be in a year!!
@jamesdeese61
Audience, would it be safe to assume that maybe two percent of the 335 million American people might have a competent understanding of this conflict?
@patrickdayton2080
This war is unsustainable for the Ukrianians side because they are losing everything down to land, humans resources, human capital, population decreasing, resources looting, financial loses, weapons loses, infrastructure loses, Sea port loses, industrial of production loses, education system destruction, languages and historical artifacts destruction and the Ukrainians and Russia government are participants in the destruction of Ukrainans historical artifacts. The longer this war last the better it will be for the Russians army and people because Ukriane and Ukrianians are slowly getting lost in this war between NATO and Russia. Were the Ukrianians leadership that stupid and blind to be used into going to war against Russia? A rat will never fight a lion or cat because it know it’s limit and strange
