Quote: "The situation along the line of combat engagement remains difficult. The enemy has intensified offensive operations along virtually the entire front and are regrouping their forces.

The Pokrovsk front is currently the most tense, where the Russian aggressor has concentrated around 106,000 personnel. The enemy activity also remains high on the Ocheretyne, Oleksandrivka, Kupiansk and Kostiantynivka fronts, as well as in areas along the state border with Russia."

Details: Syrskyi reported that Joint Fire Support units carried out more than 64,900 fire missions over the course of the month.

Artillery units struck 8,500 targets in Russia during the month, while missile units carried out 74 strikes on Russian forces.

In addition, 84 targets deep inside Russian territory were struck using deep strike capabilities in April.
