VLADIMIR Putin’s army has suffered the deadliest month of fighting since the start of the Ukraine war.
Vlad’s meat grinder approach to the conflict has left an average of 1,270 troops killed each day across September, British intelligence has revealed.

Over 661,000 Russian soldiers have been eliminated since the war began back in February 2022, say Ukraine’s Armed Forces.
With September being the worst month on record for Russia with the average casualty rate rising to 1,271 troops killed or badly injured per day, The Telegraph reports.
September also marks the fifth consecutive month that Russian losses sat at an average of over 1,000 daily deaths, say the UK Ministry of Defence.
The previous bloodiest month was in May when the highest daily rate was 1,262 soldiers.
This year is also on course to be by far the most devastating year for Putin by the numbers.
Russia averaged between 172 and 559 casualties a day in 2022 with the peak rate hitting just 967 last year, say the MoD.
Analysts have blamed the steep rise in deaths on the conflict zones along the Ukrainian border increasing.
While also saying the Kremlin’s game-plan of sending as many troops as possible into active warzones to greatly outnumber Ukraine‘s military causing the rise.
Putin has often been accused of launching “meat wave” assaults where he sends men to attack Ukrainian positions in huge numbers.
The mad dictator’s military recruitment is notorious for sending untrained and inexperienced soldiers to their deaths as “cannon fodder”.
The UK Ministry of Defence released the damning statistics along with a statement reading: “The increase in the casualty rate since May 2024 is almost certainly due to the extension of the combat zone to include both Kharkiv and Kursk military operations, and increased intensity along the frontline.”
Kyiv’s brave forces pushed into villages across the Russian border back on August 6 – marking the first-ever invasion on Russian soil since World War Two.
The mini counter invasion targeted the Kursk region with daily fighting on both sides as Vlad scrambled to organise enough troops to both attack inside Ukraine and defend its own interests.
The capture of Kursk and several other Russian villages was a “slap in the face” for a moody Putin as his flailing war continues to stutter.
Deaths were already creeping up as the summer months meant the fighting intensified for both sides.
But Kursk reportedly caused the numbers to skyrocket with Ukrainians chasing down Putin’s troops as they forced their way into towns and seized back some land.
The surprise surge left Russia on the back foot with several strongholds easily taken away as Ukraine showed they will continue to fight hard.
Despite the Ukrainian gains, Russia has continued its dominance across the border over the past 14 months.

Vlad has been making steady gains in eastern Ukraine even with his military constantly being targeted and taken out.
The despot leader is even said to be so desperate for more troops that he is willing to pay £16,000 to any men willing to be trained up.
Followed by £1,625 a month if they remain alive on the frontline.
If a fighter is killed, their family could qualify for up to £99,000 for their services.
Paranoid Putin has also begun recruiting murderers and rapists before they head to trial.
Putin has already signed a bill that enables offenders to dodge prosecution and criminal proceedings against them if they enlist to fight in Ukraine.
Some 20,000 criminals are expected to join the frontline out in Ukraine in the coming weeks alone.
One of the ways Ukraine has managed to successfully take out so many troops is through their advanced drone warfare.
Ukrainian troops have become masters in drone warfare since Putin first invaded with countless accurate strikes.
Since early 2023, the cheap, explosive, flying machines have become one of Kyiv’s biggest success stories on the battlefield.
Ukraine’s “Achilles” troops the front runners of specialised drone warfare units within the 92nd Separate Mechanized Brigade.
These troops have gained recognition for their expertise in using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in combat, particularly in repelling Russian assaults and destroying enemy equipment.
The battalion operates highly effective UAVs, such as the “Vampire” drones, which have been instrumental in targeting Russian positions and equipment, particularly in nighttime operations.

Putin has even been forced to mysteriously demolish one of his most beloved palaces amid claims the paranoid tyrant is scared of being targeted by drones.
Satellite images show how Putin’s pricey Bocharov Ruchey palace which overlooks the Black Sea in Sochi has been bulldozed with just a patch of empty land left behind.
