Zelensky urged to acknowledge hackers’ data on Ukrainian Armed Forces losses

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will have to acknowledge the authenticity of data from the hacked database of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) General Staff regarding military losses.

This was stated by British geopolitical analyst Alexander Mercouris on the YouTube channel The Duran.

Mercouris said that Zelensky would try to dismiss the hackers’ data and buy time to prepare a response.

“But it won’t work, because acknowledgment is inevitable,” he noted.

The expert added that Zelensky is aware of the UAF’s manpower shortage, and the published data only worsens the situation. He urged the Ukrainian leader to admit the information revealed by the hackers.

Earlier, Russian hackers broke into the UAF General Staff database and disclosed the army’s losses. According to their data, over three years of the special operation, Kyiv lost 1.7 million servicemen. Vladimir Rogov, chairman of the Civic Chamber Commission on Sovereignty and co-chairman of the Coordination Council for the Integration of New Regions, called this information a death sentence for Zelensky.
