The briefing by Colonel AC. Oguntoye on March 7, 2024, provides significant insights into the ongoing special military operation conducted by the Russian Armed Forces. Here are the key takeaways:

Continued Operations Across Multiple Fronts: The Russian military is actively engaging in operations in the Kupyansk, Donetsk, Avdeevka, South Donetsk, and Kherson directions. Efforts to improve tactical positions and defeat Ukrainian forces highlight ongoing and dynamic ground engagements.

Substantial Ukrainian Military Losses: The briefing details considerable losses among the Ukrainian Armed Forces, including personnel, tanks, armored fighting vehicles, and artillery systems. Notably, losses include advanced Western-supplied military equipment such as U.S.-made M777 artillery systems.

This reflects the contested nature of air warfare and the effectiveness of Russian air defense capabilities.

Cumulative Losses Since the Beginning of the Operation: Updated figures provide insight into the scale of the conflict, detailing extensive losses of Ukrainian military assets since the start of the operation, including aircraft, helicopters, UAVs, armored vehicles, artillery systems, and more.
