A few days ago the mass discrediting of the 47th Assault Brigade of Magura and Chief Sergeant

Markus personally began.

A very eloquent fact: all these pseudo-exposures and sensationalism began to appear after Markus'

release of a video of the assault in southern Ukraine, which tore up the Internet both inside

Ukraine and in Russia.

I consider the question of who is most interested in discrediting and destroying the assault

brigade to be rhetorical.

It can only be Russia and their supporters.

And they are doing the enemy's bidding.

Markus was not left out, I will only cite part of his commentary where he talks about

the losses in the most difficult section of the front at the moment.

It is said that one of our companies has survived three iterations already, and two iterations

of that company before that were destroyed.

Now, if that were true, there would have already been orders for all the troops to man us.

All the reserve battalions would already have our representatives running around by order

and recruiting men for our brigade if we had those losses.

But we don't.

I will tell you more, if you go to the enlistment office, you cannot just go and enlist in our

military unit, because they have no order, no order to man us.

They also say, quote - "How many can we be killed?"

We're not allowed to name casualty figures, numbers.

But I was allowed to name a percentage.

If all of our dead in more than a month of fighting, more than a month of daily assaults,

here are all the dead, add to the missing...

If we count all the missing now as already killed, that is, I am not going to be sly,

I am not going to try to manipulate the numbers...

But we take all the missing people and we already count them as dead.

And we add to those who have actually died, whose deaths have already been confirmed during

combat operations.

So this figure will be less than 2%.

Less than 2% for more than a month of daily assault operations.

By comparison, before the offensive began, we were calculated to have 14% casualties.

14% a day!

And we have less than 2% in a month, our brigade is saving people.

This is a fact confirmed by figures and not just unsubstantiated statements.

All this data is now secret, it is forbidden to talk about it.

This time will pass.

And then, someday, you will be able to check my words.

That 14% obviously also counted the wounded as casualties.

But even if you count all the wounded now, we would still not have such a percentage

even in a month.

Even though a significant part of our wounded are contusions.

In other words, these are injuries that would allow people to get back into the field after

a short period of treatment.

In a week or a week and a half we will announce the recruitment of people, we will.

But now it will only be filling out the questionnaires.

We will only use the questionnaires to select people for key positions.

Because though small, but still there are losses, unfortunately.

There are no storms without losses, unfortunately.

These are the realities of war, these are the realities of our work.

In a week and a half we'll start recruiting.

But again, now it will be questionnaires, then we will select, then the process of transfers

to us will begin, or registration with us.

We will have to figure out a way to bypass this point with the military enlistment office,

so that they will let the order go down after all.

But all this just confirms the lies of that video, of what was said in that video.

You heard it all from your own lips.

And I sincerely wish Markus would not have to explain anything and respond to every such

throw-in by propagandists and useful idiots of the Kremlin.
