The report also mentions five ground-based robotic systems.<\/p>\n<p>The Ukrainian military has reported that Russia has lost two multiple launch rocket systems and two air defence systems. The figures for aircraft, helicopters, cruise missiles, ships and submarines in the daily update remain unchanged.<\/p>\n<h2>Updated overall assessment since the start of the invasion<\/h2>\n<p>As of 21 July, the General Staff estimates the total losses of Russian military personnel since 24 February 2022 at approximately 1,431,900. The total number of tanks lost stands at 12,161, and that of armoured fighting vehicles at 24,978.<\/p>\n<p>According to Ukrainian estimates, the total number of artillery systems stood at 46,435, whilst the number of vehicles and tankers was 123,347.

At the same time, the figures for losses of personnel and vehicles have decreased: from 1,600 to 1,370 personnel and from 605 to 453 vehicles, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>The day before, the General Staff reported 235 combat engagements, with the highest number occurring in the Pokrovsk, Sloviansk, Lyman, Kostiantynivka and Huliaipole sectors.<\/p>\n<h2>Operational assessment against the backdrop of hostilities<\/h2>\n<p>The figure of 1,865 UAVs in the summary refers to a broader combat category, rather than the number of drones Russia used to attack Ukraine in a single night.<\/p>\n<p>For example, the Air Force reported that on the night of 20 July, Russia deployed 94 attack UAVs, of which 81 were shot down or neutralised. The General Staff\u2019s daily figure for UAV losses should therefore be viewed in the context of the overall course of the hostilities.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to the General Staff, on 20 July Russia lost 1,370 military personnel, 453 vehicles, 92 artillery systems and two multiple launch rocket systems.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":207433346,"featured_media":25207,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rank_math_description":"\u0417\u0430 \u0434\u0430\u043d\u0438\u043c\u0438 \u0413\u0435\u043d\u0448\u0442\u0430\u0431\u0443, \u0420\u043e\u0441\u0456\u044f \u0437\u0430 20 \u043b\u0438\u043f\u043d\u044f \u0432\u0442\u0440\u0430\u0442\u0438\u043b\u0430 1370 \u0432\u0456\u0439\u0441\u044c\u043a\u043e\u0432\u0438\u0445, 453 \u043e\u0434\u0438\u043d\u0438\u0446\u0456 \u0430\u0432\u0442\u043e\u0442\u0435\u0445\u043d\u0456\u043a\u0438, 92 \u0430\u0440\u0442\u0441\u0438\u0441\u0442\u0435\u043c\u0438 \u0456 \u0434\u0432\u0430 \u0420\u0421\u0417\u0412.","rank_math_title":"\u0412\u0442\u0440\u0430\u0442\u0438 \u0420\u0424 20 \u043b\u0438\u043f\u043d\u044f: \u0413\u0435\u043d\u0448\u0442\u0430\u0431 \u0437\u0430\u044f\u0432\u0438\u0432 \u043f\u0440\u043e 1370 \u0432\u0456\u0439\u0441\u044c\u043a\u043e\u0432\u0438\u0445","rank_math_focus_keyword":"\u0412\u0442\u0440\u0430\u0442\u0438 \u0420\u0424 20 \u043b\u0438\u043f\u043d\u044f","td_subtitle":"","subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[806815],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-25208","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-viyna"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25208","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/207433346"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25208"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25208\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25209,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25208\/revisions\/25209"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25207"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25208"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25208"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25208"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
