In a sharp escalation of the ongoing war, Ukrainian forces launched a fierce offensive in Russian territories after receiving green signals from the United States. The Russian military, focused on retaking the Kursk region, has been under heavy attack by Ukrainian troops. Over the last 72 hours, Ukrainian forces have reportedly killed 3,930 Russian soldiers, significantly weakening the Russian presence in the region.

The Kiev Independent reports that between March 11 and March 13, Ukraine killed 1,300, 1,430, and 1,200 Russian soldiers respectively. This drastic surge in casualties follows the acquisition of crucial intelligence, which had previously been withheld by the U.S. Intelligence support has allowed Ukrainian forces to increase their kill rate, from 40 to 55 soldiers per hour. Additionally, Ukraine has destroyed 15 Russian tanks in these three days. With these devastating losses, the Russian military is visibly struggling to regain momentum.

According to reports, a staggering 890,000 Russian soldiers have been killed in the ongoing war. In contrast, Russia has yet to release official casualty figures. Moreover, Ukrainian forces have employed guerrilla tactics, even leaving beehives in Russian bunkers to disrupt enemy operations. With each passing day, the war intensifies, and Ukrainian forces continue to push back with fierce resolve.
