The use of kamikaze drones have proven to be an effective weapon for the Ukrainian troops against Russian armoured vehicles.

Many tanks and war machines implemented by Putin in the ongoing war have been wiped out using the weapons. 

Putin has currently lost a staggering amount of military equipment, with more than 3,000 tanks, 5,981 armoured combat vehicles and 1,978 artillery systems destroyed.

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said the current Russian death toll has surpassed 10,000, and it has lost possession of previously-captured territory in the ten-month war.

The incident follows the latest Ukrainian kamikaze drone attack yesterday, December 26, as it hit Engels strategic bomber airbase deep inside Russia. 

Loud blasts were heard at the base which is used by Vladimir Putin’s Tu-95 and Tu-160 nuclear missile carrying planes.

The Ukrainian foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, said Ukraine will do whatever it can to win the war in 2023.

He suggested that a possible peace summit would take place at the United Nations with secretary-general Antonio Guterres as mediator of the talks.

The potential peace summit would take place a year after Russia invaded Ukraine in late February 2022.
