The Ukrainian army destroyed four out of ten Russian armies as operational and strategic units on Ukrainian territory during 26 days of a full-scale war.
Oleksiy Arestovych, an adviser to the head of the Ukrainian President's Office, said this at a briefing, according to an Ukrinform correspondent.
"On Day 26 of the active phase of the Russian-Ukrainian war, our troops destroyed 11 tank battalions, 34 battalions of armored fighting vehicles, five divisions of multiple rocket launchers, 17 divisions of artillery, almost five air regiments, five helicopter regiments. This is a total of three sets of Russian shock armies as operational and strategic units. That is, we destroyed three Russian shock armies and one air army - four out of the ten armies in the Russian Federation," Arestovych said.
He also noted that the country's military and political leadership is in control of the situation. According to him, the enemy has almost lost the ability to advance anywhere in Ukraine and they conduct only tactical actions and accumulate reserves, which are subjected to devastating blows from the Ukrainian missile forces, artillery and aircraft.

(12,230 posts)Ukrainians also need to find a way to get to the war ships and destroy them or at least handicap them. If that is accomplished I truly feel the war may end.

(415 posts)They'd need to send in swarms of boats loaded with explosives. That would quickly overwhelm any defenses the ship has (they're primarily against aerial or submerged threats), and it just takes one to get there to blow a big hole in it just like the USS Cole.
