The losses of the Russians have decreased markedly: why is the strategy of Ukrainian defense towed

For the third month, Russian losses have shown a decrease that Alexander Kovalenko's military observer is the failure of the Ukrainian defense strategy. After all, the main idea of ​​this strategy is to do the Russian troops of maximum harm in the power. The loss and results of the RVV offensive for the first week of July in numbers . . . The first week of July ended - and it's time to summarize the initial results of the enemy's advancement during the second phase of the summer offensive.

In the first week of July 2025, the ROV captured 166 km² of the territory of Ukraine, which becomes the average indicator of their promotion in the weekly dimension. The losses of RVB personnel in the first week of July amounted to 7 630, or, in other words, 45 bodies of the occupiers were put on average 1 km² of Ukrainian land. The indicator, to put it mildly, is not optimistic, given the need for concentration of efforts now on knocking out the enemy's living power.

In fact, excessive attention to the FPV-oules has led to the fact that others, classic, enemy neutralization, remained without attention. It is FPV-arose that is now the main means of neutralizing the enemy's living power, but as we see, it is not possible to improve the performance since March and the worst is the worst-the indicators are reduced. The reason for the absence, as well as in many ways we have, a comprehensive approach to solving problems.

Certainly, FPV drones have become a cheap and effective means of defeat, but full-firedness on them reduced the role and, accordingly, the provision of other means, the same artillery. And even if the provision is carried out, it is unattended to the needs of today - the predominant transition to cassette ammunition, from mines for mortars to shells for artillery.

In June, 547 km² of the territory of Ukraine was captured in June, their losses amounted to 32 420 l/s, and the proportion of losses to the captured territories was 59 bodies/1 km². For those who forgot, I would like to remind you that the mole was the losses in the proportion for 2024-129 bodies per 1 km², in January 2025 it was already an indicator of 148/1 km², in March, the mole was lost 304/1 km².

It is now just an incredible reduction in the proportion to the captured territories - 45/1 km². In total, from January 1, 2025 to July 1, 2025, the roof occupied 1 837 km² of the territory of Ukraine, while their losses were 230 020 l/s or 125 bodies/1 km². Compared to 2024, the indicator is high, but the trends have been indicating its correction for a decline that continues to persist for three months in a row.
