..."Ukraine said on Wednesday about 20,900 Russian personnel had been killed in the war. Russia has not updated its death count since 25 March, when it said 1,351 soldier had been killed.
On Tuesday the captain of a Russian landing ship in the Black Sea was reported dead by Tass, a state-owned Russian news agency.
Captain Alexander Chirva was killed in fighting with Ukrainian forces, Tass quoted governor of Sevastopol Mikhail Razvozhayev as saying.
Russia pulled back legions of troops from across of Ukraine towards the end of last month after failing to take any major cities outside of the country’s south.
The Russian army this week launched a new offensive in eastern Ukraine, targeting the long-contested Donbas region along with Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city.
Keen to project its military power after setbacks, the Kremlin conducted a test launch of its new, nuclear-capable Sarmat inercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) system on Wednesday.
Vladimir Putin said the test would “provide food for thought for those who, in the heat of frenzied aggressive rhetoric, try to threaten our country”...
