A Ukrainian official said, on Sunday, that more than 200 Russian military personnel were killed in an attack on a military base in the Russian-annexed Zaporizhia region.
Ivan Fedorov, mayor of the city of Melitopol, which is located in the region illegally annexed by Russia, said that Ukrainian forces carried out an attack on a military base in the city under the control of Russian forces.
And he wrote in a statement via the Telegram application, that the attack that took place last night “resulted in the death of more than 200 Russian soldiers.”
