At the same time, the defence forces continue their counter-battery struggle and destroy what Russia is trying to collect this information with.

Quote: "Over the past day, an Orlan-10 drone was destroyed...the Murom visual observation complex... in addition, our rocket and artillery units, quite symbolically, destroyed six Gvozdikas on the Left Bank yesterday, but these are not flowers, but self-propelled artillery systems that Russia used to attack Kherson Oblast ('gvozdika' is Russian for 'carnation' – ed)."
