“The 200th separate motorized infantry brigade of the Russian enemy lost two battalion-tactical groups and personally the brigade commander, Colonel Denis Kurilo in the battles near Kharkiv. The losses only of one 200th brigade amounted to more than 1,500 servicemen,” said General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Facebook.
The 200th Brigade was one of the more “elite” combat units of the Russian army and was said to be equipped with the most modern weapons that Russia had in its inventory. However, despite being equipped with Moscow’s best munitions and vehicles, the brigade had suffered losses early into its invasion of Ukraine, as reported by journalist Yuri Butusov.
