📉🇷🇺 Russia’s Equipment Losses Hit Highest Rate Since 2022
📄 Russia suffered nearly 700 equipment losses in October 2024—its heaviest monthly toll since the start of the invasion, according to analysis from the Oryx Project, which tracks verified losses through images.
💬 Newsweek reports that these figures come as Moscow attempts a pre-winter offensive, seeking gains before seasonal mud hampers movement.
💡 Russia’s costly push highlights its reliance on attrition warfare to hold ground, particularly in Donetsk. As Moscow depletes its mechanized assets, it risks losing both offensive capacity and defensive resilience, while Ukraine’s advanced tracking of losses provides tactical intelligence that could aid further precision strikes on vulnerable Russian equipment.
