Russian Defense Ministry on Losses of the 155th Marine Brigade

According to the Russian Defense Ministry, the losses of the 155th brigade's marines in the battles near Pavlovka in the Donetsk region do not exceed one percent of the fighting capacity. This was reported by РИА Новости.

The ministry clarified that seven percent of the 155th brigade's marines have been injured. At the same time, a significant portion of the soldiers has already returned to service. Thanks to the competent actions of the commanders, it has been possible to avoid serious losses.

The Defense Ministry explained that units of the 155th Marine Brigade have been carrying out effective offensive operations in the direction of Uludari for over 10 days, advancing up to five kilometers deep.

Previously, the governor of the Primorsky Territory, Oleg Kozhemyako, confirmed the losses in the 155th Marine Brigade near Pavlovka. He noted that there are losses among the fighters, but they have been greatly exaggerated.

On November 7, information circulated on social networks that the marines of the 155th brigade of the Pacific Fleet had recorded a message for the coastal governor Kozhemyako. The message discussed significant losses in the battles in the Pavlovka region of the DPR. In this regard, the marines requested the Primorye leader to establish contact with the Russian Defense Ministry to rectify the situation.
