Quote from Shershen: "On the Tavriia front, the Ukrainian defence forces are systematically driving the enemy out of their positions and continuing to advance. The dynamics have not changed: we are pressing forward, fighting back in defence, destroying the personnel of the Russian occupation forces, their weapons and armoured vehicles.
Over the past 24 hours, Rocket Forces and Artillery units of the Tavriia front Defence Forces have carried out more than 1,550 fire missions. These included both counter-battery combat and hitting planned targets that had been identified earlier."
Details: Shershen has said that Russian losses in manpower over the past day amounted to 86 killed and 162 wounded.
Ukrainian electronic warfare units have once again performed excellently, downing two air targets, namely Orlan-10 UAVs, over the past day.
25 pieces of Russian weapons and military equipment were destroyed.
The list included, in particular, two armoured fighting vehicles, three D-30 cannons, a 2A36 Giatsynt-B cannon, a 9K330 Tor anti-aircraft missile system, a Zoopark radar station and vehicles.
Nine Russian ammunition storage points were destroyed, too.
General Tarnavskyi has also shared a video of these actions.
