80% Of Troops Killed Or Injured In Elite Military Unit,says Ukrainian Commander by Teaser4(m): 9:34pm On Jun 25, 2022 |
A commander of an elite unit of Ukrainian marines has told Sky News the majority of his best trained troops have been injured or killed. Speaking near the frontline, south of the city of Severodonetsk, company commander Oleksandr said a core of experienced soldiers who had been fighting together since 2018 have been lost. "My unit was 100% made up of professional soldiers who have a lot of experience. Now, 80% are incapacitated from serious injuries or death," he says. In comments which will alarm those backing Ukraine in its four-month long war with Russia, he says he does not know how long his unit can sustain such losses. "I don't even know how to answer this question," Oleksandr says. "It's hard. It's hard but we have no choice." Read John Spark's full eyewitness report below... Source: Skynews
