Meanwhile in the Kherson direction, Kiev forces lost 70 troops, one armored fighting vehicle, seven motor vehicles and one D-30 towed howitzer to Russian artillery fire.

The Russian MoD also provided the following details during its briefing:

Operational-Tactical and Army aviation, Missile Troops and Artillery of the Russian Group of Forces have engaged AFU manpower and hardware in 143 areas during the day.

In addition, one P-18 air target detection and tracking radar station was destroyed near Novopavlovka (Donetsk People’s Republic).

Two command posts of the AFU 100th Territorial Defence Brigade and the 15th regiment of Ukraine’s National Guard were hit near Serebryanka and Krasny Liman (Donetsk People’s Republic).

One AFU ammunition depot was wiped out close to Trudovoye (Zaporozhye region).

Fighter aviation of the Russian Aerospace Forces shot down one Mi-8 helicopter of the Ukrainian Air Force near Krasny Liman (Donetsk People’s Republic).

Russian air defense systems intercepted four HIMARS MLRS projectiles during the day.

Furthermore, during the day, 53 Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles were neutralized and suppressed by radio electronic warfare means close to Verkhnekamenka, Topolevka (Lugansk People’s Republic), Peski, Vasilevka, Krasnaya Gora (Donetsk People’s Republic), Novofedorovka, Vasilyevka (Zaporozhye region), Aleshki and Novaya Kakhovka (Kherson region).

In total, 467 airplanes and 249 helicopters, 6,759 unmanned aerial vehicles, 437 air defense missile systems, 11,826 tanks and other armored combat vehicles, 1,150 combat vehicles equipped with MLRS, 6,374 field artillery cannons and mortars, as well as 12,982 units of special military equipment have been destroyed during the special military operation.

The ministry also released footage showing a failed Ukrainian attack in the direction of Ugledar, a strike by a Ka-52 attack helicopter against an armored vehicle in the South Donetsk direction and a drone attack on a position of Kiev forces in the direction of Klescheevka.

In two separate statements released later, the Russian MoD announced that a Ukrainian unmanned speed boat was neutralized in the Black Sea by naval aviation and an attempt to attack the Black Sea Fleet’s missile hovercraft Samum with a naval suicide drone was thwarted.

Early on in the morning, Russian air defense shot down four drones over the Bryansk region and eleven others over the Crimean Peninsula. An attack on the Black Sea Fleet patrol ship Sergey Kotov with five naval suicide drones was also thwarted.

Kiev forces made some gains in recent days. Nevertheless, the counteroffensive appears to be stalling. To make up for this, the Kiev regime is increasing attacks on Russian territory and the Black Sea Fleet. This will likely provoke a fierce Russian response.
