VLADIMIR Putin’s remaining troops are being forced to wade through piles of fallen comrades as Russia faced its deadliest day of fighting.
Moscow lost over 2,000 soldiers in the past 24 hours, say Ukraine‘s defiant military – but Putin’s men are still storming through the country at an alarming rate.

Russia’s staggering death toll marks the Russian tyrants most damaging period of his over 1,000-day-old conflict so far.
The previous highest was 1,950 on November 12 – with the General Staff of the Armed Forces stating Thursday saw 2,030 deaths.
It proves Putin’s meat grinder approach is still miserably failing with over 738,000 Russian soldiers now dying under Vlad’s orders.
But despite the harrowing figures continuing to soar Russia has found success on the battlefield.
Damaging projections say Russia have managed to gain just under 100 square miles in the past month.
They are capturing territory the size of two football pitches every minute, according to the US-based Institute for the Study of War.
Russian forces have focused their blitz attacks around Kupiansk, in northeastern Kharkiv province, and Khurakove in southern Donbas.
UK Defence Secretary John Healey has warned the 600-mile frontline is now at the most unstable it has been since February 2022.
The concerning statistics are nothing new to Ukraine‘s military who were left scrambling during the initial invasion in February 2022.
Russia’s latest rate of advance is still nowhere near its peak of 490 square miles a day — or 125 pitches a minute — in the first weeks of the war.
Ukraine is also taking hope from their own set of figures which say they have blasted thousands of Russian war weapons over the past few years.
Almost 20,000 drones, 10,000 tanks and hundreds of warships, planes and helicopters have all been eliminated from the dictator’s arsenal, the Armed Forces say.
Despite Vlad’s downfall appearing to be drawing closer several times this conflict he has continuously found more brainwashed troops and created terrifying new weapons to use on Ukraine.
Putin called on his pals over in North Korea for extra support to fight back against a surging Ukraine earlier this year.
Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un handed over around 10,000 troops to be trained up by Russia before being deployed on the frontlines in Kursk.
The Kremlin has also been hard at work creating a new chilling hypersonic missile which Putin has already unleashed on Ukraine.
The feared “Oreshnik” has been described as far superior to any other weapon in Russia’s arsenal.
Putin has even claimed it can turn almost anything it hits into dust.

The despot has threatened to attack the West with the weapon “if necessary”.
The Kremlin is also said to have ordered the deadly 16,000mph Satan 2 to be battle-ready sparking fears of a major escalation in the war.
In recent days, Vlad’s forces have continued to gain ground inside Ukraine with several deadly strikes.
On Thursday, Ukraine was placed under red alert with civilians taking cover in bomb shelters and one million people plunged into darkness.
Russia mounted a second “massive” attack on the country’s energy infrastructure overnight with cruise missiles and kamikaze drones.
They now claim to have grabbed even more eastern territory in recent weeks – leaving Moscow in a strong position.
It comes as fears are beginning to mount over a potential nuclear escalation of war.
Putin has been accused of playing “nuclear blackmail” with his new hypersonic missiles but that his threats are all a bluff, his ex-Prime Minister says.
Mikhail Kasyanov, who was PM during Putin’s first presidency, said Putin is “undertaking nuclear blackmailing”.
Kasyanov said the tyrant is bluffing as he seeks to draw concessions from the West.
The use of nuclear weapons would also be condemned by Vlad’s own allies like China, he warned.
Putin’s chilling threat to the West
VLADIMIR Putin has issued a chilling threat to the West against American and British rockets being used by Ukraine to attack Russia.
The tyrant’s “response” comes after the Kremlin ramped up the aggression in its invasion of Ukraine as it expelled a UK diplomat.
Moscow’s military vowed a chilling “response” to fresh Ukrainian air attacks deep inside Russia using US-supplied ATACMS missiles.
Russia’s defence ministry posted a short but chilling threat on Telegram, writing: “Retaliatory actions are being prepared.”
This followed Kyiv launching long-range rockets for the first time on 18 November, after US President Joe Biden approved their use by Volodymyr Zelensky’s troops.
Russia’s defence ministry said Ukraine had carried out fresh strikes, on 23 and 25 November, using the ATACMS rockets.
Two out of five missiles launched on Saturday damaged a Russian S-400 air defence system.
Two soldiers were wounded in the second attack which saw eight missiles launched at the Kursk-Vostochny airport, which is also a military airbase.
Russia’s defence ministry posted pictures of what it said were fragments of a ATACMS, showing large casings on the road.
The Ukrainian military also fired British Storm Shadow rockets, which are capable of dodging air defences, on 20 November.
This deadly strike was said to have killed a top-Russian military man, Lt-Gen Valery Solodchuk, and 500 North Korean troops, who were sent to help Putin’s army.
This elicited a furious reaction from Moscow who retaliated by firing intercontinental ballistic rockets into several Ukrainian cities for the first time, on Thursday.
Putin previously threatened to continue unleashing his devastating ICBMs on Ukraine and already threatened to strike the UK and US “if necessary.”
The despot said he would not hold back from using the destructive “Oreshnik” hypersonic ballistic weapon, which hit the Ukrainian city of Dnipro.
Kyiv fears Russia may already have 10 of the terrifying weapons in its arsenal with Putin vowing to mass produce dozens more.
