Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Sunday that 31,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed in action in the two years since Russia launched its full-scale invasion.
Zelenskyy said that the number was far lower than estimates given by Russian President Vladimir Putin’s government.
“31,000 Ukrainian military personnel have been killed in this war. Not 300,000, not 150,000, not whatever Putin and his deceitful circle have been lying about. But nevertheless, each of these losses is a great sacrifice for us,” Zelenskyy said at the “Ukraine Year 2024” forum in Kyiv.
The Ukrainian leader said that he wouldn’t disclose the number of troops that were wounded or missing. He also said that “tens of thousands of civilians” had been killed in occupied areas of Ukraine, but said that no exact figures would be available until the war was over.

Good Afternoon America,
Yet another AP ariticle full of “Dis-Information”.
WELL, EARL, WHATS THE TRUTH THEN?
****STAND BY FOR BREAKING NEWS FROM EARL****
“America I, Earl Pitts American, just got back from Ukraine, where I began my interrogation of Volodymyr Zelenskyy with the application of my massive “SIZE 13 WINGTIPS” several painfull times to Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s narrow posterior. After we established “The Pecking Order” of the meeting Volodymyr Zelenskyy broke down in tears and said, “Well Earl Just Tell Me What To Do”.
I, Earl Pitts American, instructed Volodymyr Zelenskyy that “THE TRUTH WILL SET HIM AND UKRAINE FREE”.
LONG STORY SHORT:
Volodymyr Zelenskyy will, at my direction, “Come Clean” and “Tell All” about 8iden’s corruption and malfeasence in regards to Ukraine and beg, on his hands and knees on National USA TV for everyone to vote Trump so we can get Ukraine “FREE, FREE, FREE AT LAST” and as a somewhat insignifiant “SIDE-BAR” we will then all be able to tell Joe: “YOUR FIRED GET OUT”.
AND THAT AMERICA, IS “THE REST OF THE STORY”.
This Sage Wisdom has been brought to you coutesy if Me Earl Pitts American
