The Russian defense ministry noted that as a result of these attacks, the Ukrainian army has suffered losses of up to 40 servicemen.
“In the areas of Synkovka and the settlement of Terny in the Kharkiv region, units of the ‘Western’ group of forces repelled five attacks by the 115th Mechanized and 95th Airborne Assault Brigades of the Ukrainian Armed Forces through active actions and artillery fire,” the ministry said.
