Quote: "During the day’s fighting, the enemy struck a few settlements in Bashtanka and Mykolaiv districts (Mykolaiv Oblast), and fired on the recently liberated settlements in Beryslav district (Kherson Oblast) along the line of contact.
The enemy is conducting aerial reconnaissance, including with the use of combat drones that return to base.
However, when Lancet drones are used for reconnaissance missions, they also drop explosives on their target. The enemy attacked Mykolaiv district in this way today. There are no casualties."
Details: Russian forces deployed heavy artillery and Grad multiple-launch rocket systems to shell the settlements of the northern Kherson Oblast that had been liberated last month. Several buildings and cars were damaged. There were no casualties.
In the evening, air defence forces destroyed two Russian Kamov Ka-52 ‘Hokum-B' attack helicopters in the skies over Beryslav district (Kherson Oblast).
The aircraft of the Armed Forces of Ukraine delivered a high-precision strike on a cluster of military personnel at a Russian strong point near the town of Snihurivka (Mykolaiv Oblast).
Ukraine’s Rocket Forces and Artillery units performed 180 firing missions, striking Russian positions and concentrations of their forces.
"The enemy's army has decreased by 21 Ruscists. One military vehicle and a mortar have been neutralised. The rest of the enemy's losses are being ascertained," the command reported.
Meanwhile, one missile carrier armed with eight Kalibr high-precision cruise missiles is combat-ready in the waters of the Black Sea.
The Russian flotilla in the Black Sea consists of seven vessels, which continue to manoeuvre along the southern coast of Crimea.
