A Russian soldier has been overheard in a phone call to his mother describing huge losses and “whole forest dotted with dead soldiers” during attempts to attack the village of Ivanivka, in the Kupyansk direction, according to Kyiv Post publication.

In the intercepted call published by Ukraine’s Military Intelligence Directorate, the soldier says he and his fellow troops don’t stand a chance in the face of Ukrainian armoured vehicles, snipers and machine gunners, resulting in huge losses of manpower.

“There’s such a slaughter going on there!” he says. “More than a thousand were killed there”

He goes on: “Ukrainians don’t let them approach anywhere near them and shoot at everyone.

“Our guys come up there, and their tank drives up blindly” the soldier says.

The soldier then goes on to describe the horrifying scenes he has seen, suggesting the whole attempt to take ground in the Kupyansk direction is futile.

“This whole forest landing in front of us dotted with the dead soldiers,” he says. “They can’t even take Ivanovka!

“It’s ridiculous that they still mention capturing Novoselovka or even Kupyansk, they must be kidding!”

He then says that when a unit of 20 men attack a Ukrainian position only “two or three come back.”

He adds: “The guys who tried to capture these Ukrainian dugouts died there. Ukrainians tank buried them there.
“It hit the dugout and started spinning on it, what kind of dugout will withstand it, there are more than 70 tons!”

Speaking further, he adds that the Ukrainian positions are well fortified and concreted, about eight Ukrainian soldiers can contain the assault of hundreds of enemy forces.

According to the Kharkiv region’s military administration, the Russian forces tried to attack Ivanivka and Synkivka 5 times over the past few days but had no success.
