#Russia's elite Marines have suffered four times higher losses during a year of fighting near #Vuhledar in #Donetsk Oblast than during 10 years of the Second #Chechen War.
According to the BBC, at least 211 marines from the 155th Brigade were killed during the battle for Vuhledar, with another 42 missing. This far exceeds the unit's losses during the decade-long Second Chechen War in 1999-2009.
