On August 3, multiple videos documenting recent Russian military operations against Kiev forces were posted to social networks.
Eight of the videos show recent attacks with FPV multirotor suicide drones that targeted Ukrainian troops, posts and equipment across several directions in the special military operation zone in the last few days.
Three other videos show airstrikes with UMPK-equipped guided glide bombs that hit Ukrainian positions near the settlements of Iskra and Berestok in the Donetsk direction as well as close to the settlement of Kovsharovka in the direction of Kharkiv.
In addition, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced in its daily briefing that missile and drone strikes hit “infrastructure of a military airfield, positions of SAM (surface-to-air missile) systems, storage and preparation areas for a launch of long-range unmanned aerial vehicles, temporary deployment areas of Ukrainian troops and foreign mercenaries” in 139 areas in the last 24 hours.
The ministry added that Russian air defenses also shot down two U.S.-made HIMARS projectiles and 274 fixed-wing drones during the same period.
According to the ministry, Kiev forces have lost 664 aircraft, 283 helicopters, 74,460 drones, 625 air defense systems, 24,432 tanks and other armored fighting vehicles, 1,584 multiple rocket launchers, 28,136 artillery pieces, and 39,069 support vehicles since the start of the special military operation.
