This was reported by the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine.

"In order to replenish the sanitary and irrecoverable losses of the Russian occupation forces suffered during the fighting in Ukraine, as well as to man new military units, Moscow is sending personnel of the Russian Pacific Fleet and the 11th Air and Air Defense Forces Army to the war," the statement said.

The intelligence noted that these Russian military units had not previously been directly involved in hostilities against Ukraine.

According to the decision of the Commander of the Russian Pacific Fleet, Viktor Liina, rotations to Syria have been completely suspended, and all personnel are being sent to the combat zone in Ukraine. We are talking about 2,000 Russian soldiers from the Primorsky and Kamchatka Territories of the Russian Federation.

In addition, about 400 more soldiers from the military units of the 11th Air and Air Defense Forces Army stationed in the Khabarovsk Territory of the Russian Federation will replenish the losses in the 155th and 40th Marine Brigades of Russia, which are fighting against Ukraine and are short-staffed due to huge losses.

The Ukrainian Intelligence noted that part of the personnel from the military units of the Russian Far East will join the new motorized rifle brigade of the aggressor state, which is being formed in Voronezh.

  • Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, at least 2605 former and current participants in the war have been charged with criminal offenses.
  • Over the past day, 78 combat clashes took place on the frontline. Ukrainian defenders repelled Russian attacks in 5 directions and killed 840 Russian soldiers.
