Russia’s invasion of Ukraine with its superior military power has suffered repeated setbacks. Russian President Vladimir Putin is eager to achieve results on the occasion of the first anniversary of the aggression, but the Russian army has been attacking Bakhmut and Vuhledar in eastern Ukraine for a long time. No less, and it is also rumored that the battle damage may be serious. The Ukrainian-Russian war briefing of the British Ministry of Defense on the 10th pointed out that the Russian army may have lost as many as 30 armored vehicles in a failed attack in Bugledar alone.

According to Archyde.com, the British Ministry of Defense stated in the latest war briefing: “Russian troops may have abandoned at least 30 mostly intact armored vehicles and fled after a failed attack.” Bugledar is located in the Udon Donetsk Oblast. It is a position controlled by the Russian army. It is located at the strategic position where the eastern and southern front lines meet, and has been continuously attacked by the Russian army.

In addition, some Russian military bloggers also mentioned the losses of the Russian army in Bugledar, and photos of several armored vehicles and chariots that were allegedly abandoned on the local battlefield. The “Moscow Calling” (Moscow Calling), which often criticizes the generals of the Russian army in Ukraine, issued an article on the 9th that 31 armored vehicles of the 155th Independent Guards Marine Brigade of the Russian Pacific Fleet were in an attack on Bugledar. Destroyed during the attack, the troops were sent into battle without cover from artillery fire.

The semi-official Telegram channel “Gray Zone” of the Russian “Wagner” mercenary group also posted: “Disasters are happening around Bugledar, and they are happening again and again”, and blamed the failure on the “crisis” of the Russian military command system. The Russian Ministry of Defense has not yet commented on the matter, but has previously declared that military operations in Bugledar and Bakhmut were “progressing well”.
