According to the General Staff: "Over the course of the day, Ukrainian defenders destroyed a command post and support units of the 35th All-Military Army of the Eastern Military District of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Enemy losses are being confirmed."
Details: Over the past 24 hours, Ukrainian Air Force anti-aircraft missiles and Ukrainian Land Forces air defence systems have destroyed 10 Russian targets: 2 Su-34 fighter-bomber jets, 3 Su-34SM fighter jets, 3 helicopters, and an operational-tactical UAV.
Information about the type of another aircraft that was shot down, and the condition of the pilots of the grounded planes, is still being confirmed.
Russian troops, unsuccessful in conducting a ground operation, continue to carry out missile and bomb strikes on the infrastructure and densely populated areas of Ukrainian cities.
Russia also continues to act deceitfully in the information space: carrying out cyber attacks, and physically destroying radio and TV signal repeaters.
Russia also continues to actively disseminate disinformation about the course of the so-called "special operation" among its own people.
