The Russian military’s Sever Group of Forces inflicted heavy losses on several formations of Kiev forces in the Kursk direction, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced on October 20.
In its daily briefing, the ministry said that 22nd, 47th, and 115th mechanized brigades, 82nd and 95th air assault brigades, the 36th Marine Brigade, as well as the 103rd and 129th territorial defense brigades took losses near the settlements of Kolmakov, Kruglenkoye, Lyubimovka, Nizhniy Klin, Novoivanovka, Novy Put, Tolsty Lug, Cherkasskaya Konopelka, and Cherkasskoye Porechnoye.
Russian air and artillery strikes also hit gatherings of manpower and equipment belonging to the 17th Tank Brigade, 41st and 61st mechanized brigades, the 80th Air Assault Brigade, as well as the 101st Territorial Defence Brigade, according to the ministry.
The gatherings were targeted near the settlements of Aleksandriya, Viktorovka, Volfino, Guyevo, Daryino, Zeleny Shlyakh, Ivashkovskiy, Kazachaya Loknya, Kamyshevka, 2nd Knyazhy, Kurilovka, Makeyevka, Maryevka, Oleshnya, and Pogrebki.
