Quote: "Since 10 October, when the enemy became more active, it has advanced by 1.5-2 km in some places. But this has cost [the Russians] dearly.

In a little over two months, the enemy has lost almost 25,000 people killed and wounded in Donetsk Oblast alone (in the area of responsibility of the Tavriia Operational Strategic Group), and about 200 tanks and more than 400 other armoured vehicles have been destroyed. 80 per cent of this [happened] on the Avdiivka front."

Details: Shtupun added that the Russians have the advantage in terms of manpower.
