On May 30, several videos showing recent combat operations by the Russian military against Kiev forces in several directions were posted to social networks.
Four of the videos showed recent drone and artillery strikes that targeted posts, troops and equipment of Kiev forces in Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia and several other directions. United States-made weapons, including International M1224 MaxxPro and Oshkosh M-ATV mine-resistant ambush-protected vehicles as well as an M113 armored personnel carrier, were among the targets.
Three other videos showed bombs equipped with UMPK guidance and gliding kits hitting Ukrainian positions, fortifications and gatherings in Donetsk.
In addition to these videos, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced in its daily briefing that recent missile and drone strikes inflicted damage on “a military airfield, a facility repairing military hardware, workshops of unmanned aerial vehicles and their launch sites, ammunition depots as well as temporary deployment areas of the AFU [Armed Forces of Ukraine units] in 149 areas” over the last 24 hours.
Russian air defenses also shot down seven U.S.-made JDAM guided aerial bombs and 100 fixed-wing drones, according to the ministry.
According to the ministry, Kiev forces have lost 663 aircraft, 283 helicopters, 60,692 drones, 609 air defense systems, 23,685 tanks and other armored fighting vehicles, 1,565 multiple rocket launchers, 25,529 artillery pieces, and 36,288 support vehicles since the start of the special military operation.
