The Russian military’s Sever Group of Forces inflicted heavy losses on several Ukrainian formations while thwarting several attacks in the Kursk direction, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced on November 2.
In its daily briefing, the ministry said that the 21st, 22nd, 41st, and 115th mechanized brigades, 17th Tank Brigade, 82nd and 95th air assault brigades, 36th Marine Brigade, as well as the 112th, and 129th territorial defense brigades took losses near the settlements of Daryino, Leonidovo, Nikolayevo-Daryino, Novoivanovka, and Plyokhovo.
It added that four counter-attacks were repelled close to the settlements of Kamyshovka and Novoivanovka, and other attempts by Kiev forces to launch attacks near the settlements of Daryino and Leonidovo were thwarted.
“The AFU [Armed Forces of Ukraine] losses amounted to up to 30 people killed and wounded; seven AFU servicemen surrendered,” the ministry stated.
In addition, the ministry announced that Russian air and artillery strikes hit the 21st, 41st, 47th, and 61st mechanized brigades, 17th Tank Brigade, 80th, 82nd, and 95th air assault brigades, 36th Marine Brigade, 1st Special Operations Brigade, as well as the 112th, 129th territorial defense brigades and the 17th National Guard Brigade of Ukraine.
