Moscow, July 5 (QNA) – The Russian Defense Ministry announced today that its forces had inflicted approximately 1,265 casualties on Ukrainian forces over the past 24 hours as a result of military operations on various fronts.
In its daily statement on the progress of military operations in Ukraine, the Russian Defense Ministry stated that its forces had reinforced their positions in Sumy, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson, and had destroyed a number of Ukrainian military vehicles and ammunition depots.
It added that Russian air defenses had shot down three JADEM bombs and a HIMARS guided missile, in addition to downing 371 Ukrainian drones.
It’s worth noting that since the beginning of the war, now in its fourth year, Russia and Ukraine have exchanged almost daily reports confirming that each side has repelled attacks from the other, without verifying these reports from an independent source, given the circumstances of the war and the ongoing fighting since February 24, 2022.
