According to the article, the Russian Ministry of Defense says they only lost soldiers in Kiev because they entered the area without using weapons. Okay I guess.
Then the Defense Ministry goes on to say that everything is good now because they are following military science. Okay again,I guess. Following military science is good.
"According to him, at the beginning of the operation, the Russian military entered the territory controlled by Kyiv without using weapons."
“Now it is carried out strictly in accordance with military science, in accordance with all the governing documents, combat manuals, instructions for the use of various types of troops and types of the Armed Forces,” he said, adding that new combat methods “bring tangible results.”
