Ukraine has lost more than 71,000 troops since early June while failing to gain any substantial ground, according to Moscow
Ukrainian troops have suffered colossal losses during Kievβs counteroffensive while achieving almost no results, Tesla and Space X CEO Elon Musk has said.
Writing on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, the US tycoon commented on a post by investor and entrepreneur David Sacks, who shared an article by analyst David Pyne stating that βUkrainian territorial gains from their much-vaunted counteroffensive are so miniscule they can barely be seen on a map.β
Musk appeared to agree with this assessment, writing: βSo much death for so little.β
The message by Sacks was an update to an earlier post he made on June 20 in which he summed up the Ukrainian push up to that point, which had been underway for two weeks. He said thatΒ βitβs becoming clear that the Ukrainian counteroffensive is failing to achieve any of its originally stated objectives,βΒ adding that Washingtonβs hopes that Kiev would be able to cut off Russiaβs land bridge to Crimea had been dashed.
