Quote: "A pair of Su-35s belonging to the invaders struck Ukraine with cruise missiles from Belarusian territory on the night of 4 April.

It is likely that the targets of the 'Rashists' (Russian fascists - ed.) were to be civilian infrastructure facilities in several western regions.

Three cruise missiles were destroyed by anti-aircraft defences, and a fourth missile was damaged, which prevented it from hitting its target accurately."

Details: It is noted that the invaders scouted for the results of the missile strikes using two UAVs, which the Ukrainian Armed Forces also shot down.

Also on 4 April, a "far from new" artillery gun at one of the naval bases was hit by a "Kalibr" missile belonging to the invaders.

Background: Earlier it was reported that two cruise missiles were shot down over the Rivne region on 5 April, while two more were shot down over the Dnipropetrovsk region.
