- Operations were reported in Ust-Luga and Primorsk, involving “Birds of the 1st SBS” and deep-attack units.

Kiev (Azat TV) – Forces operating under the command of “Magyar” reported a significant number of enemy casualties on the morning of March 31, claiming the elimination of 10,200 personnel. The statement, disseminated via social media channels, also indicated ongoing operations and a concerning trend for Russian mobilization efforts.
“Birds of Prey” Operations in Ust-Luga and Primorsk
According to the report from “Magyar,” operations on the night of March 31 involved “Birds of the 1st SBS” delivering a “warm greeting” to Ust-Luga. This was followed by subsequent actions in Primorsk, which “once again welcomed the SBU and other deep-attack units.” While specific details regarding the nature of these “bird strikes” and the units involved were not elaborated upon, the language suggests coordinated and impactful offensive actions targeting enemy positions and personnel.
Concerns Over Russian Mobilization Rate
The reporting also highlighted intelligence assessments concerning the rate of Russian mobilization. A statement indicated that during March 2026, the daily mobilization rate, according to intelligence, was exceeding 1,000 soldiers. This figure is presented in the context of a declining morale or effectiveness, with an implication that many mobilized individuals are seeking to avoid service. The assessment posits that for the fourth consecutive month, from December 2025 through March 2026, the balance of “arrived: departed” for Russian forces has been “confidently NEGATIVE,” suggesting a higher rate of departure, potentially through casualties, desertion, or other means, than arrivals through mobilization.
The claims of significant enemy manpower elimination and a consistently negative mobilization balance, if substantiated, point to a critical strain on Russian military resources and personnel management.
