Russian Military Suffers Heavy Losses in Ukraine and Kazakhstan.

Ukraine's long-awaited counteroffensive against Russia resulted in the loss of 17 tanks and 24 Armored Personnel Vehicles (APV) in a day, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The update also claimed that Russia lost a total of 3,926 tanks since the war began last February. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed that the counteroffensive began after several months of preparations, with the help of Western countries sending tanks, heavy artillery, and advanced military equipment. Despite the reported losses, Russian President Vladimir Putin claimed that Ukrainian forces were unsuccessful with their defensive actions on the frontline because of Russian weapons' quality and proper command.
