From the first day of hostilities to the present day, our estimate of the enemy destroyed (by Wagner PMC units) is only a cargo of 200, that is, for people killed (irrecoverable losses) – 38 000 people. Of which 32,000 people are in Bakhmut, Soledar and surrounding areas during the blockade of Bakhmut,” Prigozhin said.
