SitRep - 04/12 - Soon the 1000km drone will fly
An overview of the daily events in the war between Russia and Ukraine. With relatively little news today. In the east near Svatove, the AFU seems to be increasing the pressure. Taking advantage of the relatively good, dry weather.
As usual we start with Russian losses reported by the Ukrainian general staff. We also include damaged and/or damaged Russian equipment.
+550 men personnel
+5 tanks
+6 APCs
+1 aircraft (of which it is unclear if we talk about the Su-25 or Su-34)
A Russian 2S1 Gvozdika was destroyed.
In Bakhmut, the last couple of days a lot of Russian soldiers are captured. Here another one..
A captured BTR-82A got refurbished and is now fighting against its former owner.
Trophies and destroyed equipment in Kherson during the recent liberation.
A destroyed BMD
And some more trophies captured on tape.
