Details: Syrskyi said the front line where active fighting is taking place stretches about 1,200 km. Ukrainian forces are advancing deeper into the battlefield, while the development of unmanned systems enables troops to operate farther into the kill zone, now reaching 15-20 km.
He said that the size of the Russian grouping in Ukraine has stayed around 711,000-712,000 personnel over the last six months, including operational reserve. He noted that daily Russian losses average 1,000-1,100 troops.
The commander-in-chief added that the Russians had achieved no significant operational successes in January.
