80% of the troops in the Ukrainian military's elite marines unit have been killed or injured, according to a commander.
Oleksandr said that his unit was made up of professional soldiers who have a lot of experience. 80% are no longer able to function due to serious injuries or deaths.
He told Sky News that he and his teammates have been fighting.
The battle between Russian and Ukrainian forces took place in the city of Severodonetsk.
The city has been taken over by the Russians.
He was asked if he could sustain these losses for a long time. We have no choice.
According to Zelenskyy, Ukraine is losing up to 100 soldiers per day.
Boris Johnson, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, said that the invasion is losing its forward momentum.
Russia could come to a point in the next few months where there is no forward momentum because it has exhausted its resources, according to the defense intelligence service.
A senior Western official told The Washington Post that there will come a time when the tiny advances Russia is making become unsustainable in light of the costs.
