During the counteroffensive in the Kharkiv region, the occupying troops of the Russian Federation suffer ten times more losses than the Armed Forces. Ukrainian defenders “break stereotypes”, because according to the laws of war, the one who advances bears the biggest losses. This was stated by the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Oleksiy Danilov on Channel 24 .

“I can say the ratio of the losses of the enemy to our losses. Today they are 1 to 9-10. For one of our dead soldiers, unfortunately, there are 9-10 dead Rashists who invaded our land. This is a very interesting indicator because according to the laws of war, when you go on the offensive, you lose much more than when defending,” Danilov said.
According to the Secretary of the National Security Council, Ukrainian defenders “break stereotypes” in military matters. He added that not every country is capable of resisting the enemy like that.
“We are breaking many stereotypes today both for NATO representatives and for our partners. They… they are pleasantly surprised by the quality of work of our military, our civilians and our entire society in the fight for independence and freedom,” he noted: “Our country shows a very vivid example for the whole world of how to protect one’s Motherland.”
Another 6% of the region remains occupied .
