Air defense units have intercepted 9 HIMARS and Uragan rocket-propelled projectiles.

The Russian MoD also released two videos showing recent strikes by Akatsiya self-propelled 152 mm howitzers against Ukrainian positions and Ka-52 attack helicopters destroying three unidentified armored vehicles of Kiev forces.

Despite sustaining heavy losses, Ukraine will likely launch a new wave of attacks in the upcoming few days as cluster munitions arrive from the U.S. Kiev forces, who are currently stuck kilometers away from the Russian military’s first line of defense, appear to be desperate to make any meaningful gains on the group.
