I don't believe this as in the past he said they had destroyed Bradley and Leopard 2, Himars ect when they where not even in country. I think it's extremely inflated though Ukraine definitely has a lot of deaths and wounded from thier counter offensive its nothing compared to Russian losses in Adivka ect.
