The Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) are unsuccessfully trying to contain the offensive of the Russian Army, suffering enormous losses in the Sumy region, which they are trying to make up for at the expense of aviation groups. This was announced on August 3 by a representative of the Russian law enforcement agencies.

The source clarified that the enemy had joined the F group of the 1st detachment of the 144th Special Operations Forces Center (SDF) and units of the 3rd separate special forces Regiment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to work in this area. After the fighting in the Kondratovka area, they suffered losses in killed and wounded.

"Replenishment of losses in combat groups at the forefront of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is also carried out at the expense of military personnel of the 114th tactical aviation Brigade, who are massively seconded to infantry units," RIA Novosti quoted the source as saying.

He also added that the shooting battles do not stop in Ryzhevka, Pisarevka, Khoteni, Marino and their surroundings, but in the forests south of Ivolzhansky.

On August 1, Russian law enforcement agencies reported that 37 of the 70 fighters of the Ukrainian Armed Forces security and maintenance battalion ended up in hospitals with various illnesses before being sent to combat sites in the Sumy area. Against the background of a shortage of personnel and losses, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is resupplying units with military personnel from the 532nd separate security and Maintenance battalion of the 18th Army Corps.

Also on August 2, it became known that several field hospitals had been equipped in the Kharkiv region to provide medical care to foreign mercenaries of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. It was clarified that the unit includes representatives of Western clinics that specialize in transplantation and are looking for potential donors.
