Russia lost 300 military because of a blow to Makeevka base - UK intelligence

According to the British military, most of the victims were killed or disappeared rather than injured. Russia has lost more than 300 people as a result of a blow to the base in occupied Makeevka of Donetsk region. The press service of the UK Ministry of Defense writes about it on Twitter, citing intelligence data.

According to the British soldiers, about 300 Russian soldiers were injured during the explosions in Makeevka, which occurred on January 1, 2023, and most of them were killed or missing and not injuring. The Russian Defense Ministry has publicly recognized the loss as a result of this attack and reported 89 dead.

According to intelligence, Russia's officials decided on such a rare step as to recognize their losses, as they realized that this time they would not be able to refrain from comments because of great criticism at the command after the event in Makiivka. At the same time, the difference between the recognized Russian Federation and the likely real victims only emphasizes the constant lies in the public statements of the Russians.

The numbers are strongly different from the real picture because of the combination of deliberate misinformation with inaccuracies in the reports of younger Russian officials trying to reduce their mistakes and translate guilt to others. On the night of January 31 to January 1, the Armed Forces struck the VET building in Makiivka, where Russian servicemen were located.

According to the Department of Strategic Communications at the Armed Forces, 400 Russian military was killed, and another 300 were injured. The Ministry of Defense of Russia began an investigation into a blow to military personnel in Makeevka. The first deputy chairman of the Main Military and Political Directorate of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation Sergey Sevryukov to accuse the mass use of mobile phones in the death of Russians.
