Russia claims significant Ukrainian drone and territory losses
Russia's Ministry of Defence has reported significant Ukrainian losses in the ongoing war. They stated that over 1,100 Ukrainian drones were destroyed in just one week. This brings the total number of UAVs shot down by Russia to 47,000 since the conflict began. Russian air defenses also claimed to have intercepted 28 JDAM smart bombs and seven HIMARS rockets recently. These developments suggest a strong aerial campaign by Russian forces against Ukraine's assets. In Kursk, the Russian military has reportedly gained control of more territory. They have captured multiple towns and significant areas, raising concerns for Ukrainian troops. Russian officials claim this will lead to a decisive victory. The intensity of the fighting in Ukraine continues, with both sides engaged in aerial attacks. Diplomatic efforts for a ceasefire or peace talks are ongoing, but there is still much uncertainty about the outcome.
