Russia is sending personnel of the Russian Pacific Fleet and the 11th Air Force and Air Defence Army to the war against Ukraine. This was reported by the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine.
"In order to replenish the sanitary and irrecoverable losses of the Russian occupation forces suffered during the fighting in Ukraine, as well as to man new military units, Moscow is sending personnel of the Russian Pacific Fleet and the 11th Air Force and Air Defence Army to the war," the statement said.
The DIU noted that these military units had not previously been directly involved in hostilities against Ukraine.
According to the decision of the Commander of the Pacific Fleet, Viktor Liina, rotations to Syria have been completely stopped, and all personnel are being sent to the combat zone in Ukraine.
This includes 2,000 Russian servicemen from the Primorsk and Kamchatka Territories of the Russian Federation. About 400 more soldiers from the military units of the 11th Air Force and Air Defence Army stationed in the Khabarovsk Territory will patch up the "holes" of the 155th and 40th Marine Brigades, which are fighting against Ukraine and are short-staffed due to huge losses.
Part of the personnel from the military formations of the Russian Far East will join the new motorised infantry brigade being formed in Voronezh.
