The Russian military carried out 25 group strikes against energy and transportation infrastructure facilities as well as military-industrial complex enterprises in Ukraine, the Russian Defense Ministry said in its weekly briefing.
“Between April 28 and May 4, in response to the Kiev regime’s attempts to inflict damage to Russian energy and industrial facilities, the Russian Armed Forces carried out 25 group strikes via precision weapons and drones, hitting Ukrainian energy and transportation infrastructure facilities, military-industrial complex enterprises, missile and ammunition storage areas as well as unmanned speedboats and drone manufacturing workshops,” the ministry said.
The ministry noted that the strikes also hit temporary deployment locations of Ukrainian neo-Nazi militias and foreign mercenaries as well as concentrations of military vehicles.
Also in the briefing, the ministry provided details on recent Russian defensive and offensive actions in different directions within the special military operation zone in Ukraine.
The ministry said that the Zapad Group of Forces captured more advantageous lines and inflicted damage on 12 Ukrainian brigades close to Stelmakhovka, Novogorovka -in the Lugansk region-, Petropavlovka, Glushkovka, Sinkovka -in the Kharkov region- and Torskoye -in the Donetsk region- during the week.
It added that the group also repelled 23 counter-attacks by Ukraine’s 77th airmobile, 3rd assault, 63rd mechanized brigades, 10th and 18th National Guard brigades close to Chervonaya Dibrova, Novovovodyanoye -in Lugansk-, Grigorovka and Terny -in Donetsk-.
“The enemy lost up to 975 troops, 3 armored combat vehicles, 28 automobile vehicles, 2 Grad MLRS [multiple launch rocket systems] launchers and 27 field artillery guns, including 13 Western-made guns,” the ministry said.
Also during the week, the Yug Group of Forces continued to advance to the depths of the Ukraine In defense, according to the ministry.
The ministry said that two Ukrainian airborne, three assault and nine mechanized brigades were been hit by the group near Spornoye, Andreyevka, Maksimilyanovka, Paraskoviyevka, Belogorovka, Kleshcheyevka and Kurdyumovka -in Donetsk-.
Four counter-attacks by the 46th airmobile, 79th, 80th air assault brigades and 93rd mechanized brigades of Kiev forces were also repelled close to Bogdanovka, Georgiyevka, Krasnogorovka and Chasov Yar -in Donetsk-, it added.
“The AFU [Armed Forces of Ukraine] losses were more than 2,325 Ukrainian troops, seven tanks, 10 armored fighting vehicles, including four United States-made M113 armored personnel carriers, 44 motor vehicles and 20 field artillery guns,” the ministry said. “Five electronic warfare stations have been eliminated: one Nota, one Anklav, one Bukovel-AD, one U.S.-made AN/TPQ-36 counter-battery warfare station and four field ammunition depots.”
The Tsentr Group of Forces also improved the situation along the front line and liberated Novobakhmutovka, Semyonovka and Berdychi during the week, the ministry said.
In addition, the group defeated 14 Ukrainian brigades and repelled 66 counter-attacks close to Leninskoye, Usmanskoye, Novgorodskoye, Novokalinovo, Ocheretino and Netaylovo -in Donetsk-.
“More than 2,405 Ukrainian troops, three U.S.-made Abrams tanks, 20 armored fighting vehicles, including four U.S.-made Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, 27 motor vehicles and 33 field artillery guns, 14 of them are Western-made,” were neutralized in this direction, according to the ministry.
The ministry also said that the Vostok Group of Forces improved the tactical situation by defeating the 58th Motorised Infantry Brigade, the 72nd Mechanised Brigade, the 102nd and 128th Territorial Defense brigades of Kiev forces near Chervonoye, Gulyai pole -in the Zaporozhye region-, Ugledar, Urozhaynoye and Staromayorskoye -in Donetsk-.
“The AFU losses were up to 745 Ukrainian troops, 15 motor vehicles, 15 field artillery guns, two Anklav and Bukovel-AD electronic warfare stations as well as one ammunition depot,” the ministry added.
From its side, the Dnepr Group of Forces engaged during the week four brigades, marine forces, three Territorial Defense brigades and National Guard brigades of Kiev forces close to Malaya Tokmachka, Rabotino, Novoandreyevka, Shcherbaki -in Zaporozhye-, Mikhailovka, Ivanovka, Tyaginka and Berislav -in the Kherson region-, according to the ministry.
“The AFU losses were up to 215 Ukrainian troops, nine motor vehicles and six field artillery guns,” the ministry said.
Also during the week, the Missile Troops and Artillery and the drones of the Russian Groups of Forces eliminated two U.S.-made HIMARS MLRS, two S-300PT air-defense system launchers with an illumination and guidance radar, one German-made IRIS-T air defense missile system launcher as well as one fuel depot for military hardware, the ministry said, adding that a military echelon with Western-made hardware and weapons delivered to Ukraine by NATO countries was also targeted and destroyed.
Meanwhile, Russian air defenses shot down during the week 15 U.S.-made ATACMS tactical ballistic missiles, 17 French-made Hammer aerial bombs, six GLSDB, HIMARS and Uragan projectiles as well as 201 drones, according to the ministry.
The ministry also revealed that 14 Ukrainian servicemen surrendered to the Russian military in different directions during the week.
“In total, 593 airplanes, 270 helicopters, 23,742 unmanned aerial vehicles, 512 anti-aircraft missile systems, 15,911 tanks and other armored fighting vehicles, 1,279 combat vehicles of multiple rocket launcher systems, 9,289 field artillery guns and mortars and 21,471 special military vehicles have been neutralized since the beginning of the special military operation,” the ministry concluded.
Overall, Kiev forces sustained heavy human and material losses over the past week and failed to stop Russian attacks. The most significant advance by the Russian military was to the northwest of the city of Avdeevka in the Donetsk direction. The situation will not likely get better for Ukraine.

russian army handling the battlefield with excellence force, the western strategies aren’t working, more catastrophe await western strategies. congratulations russian courageous army
kind of explains why the western leaders went from “we’re not involved” to we “can’t let russia win and now mulling sending their own forces”
‘overall, kiev forces sustained heavy losses over the past week’
the same old same old. rf chases ukr forces round the dpr and ends up back where it started.
murika meanwhile counter-colonises eu/baltics with eyes on georgia, tajikistan etc.
of course in sf rf is winning this week by taking berdychi, and us-shill-ritter will always agree.
rf is winning this week and in the last 40-50 weeks as well
winning what? it has failed to achieve any of the stated smo aims. it has failed to retake dpr, lpr, zapor etc. rf’s only ‘achievement’ has been slaughtering x00,000s slavic conscripts on behalf of nutto and fuelling the west’s mic.
murika is stealing rf’s wallet while rf is bending over to pick up the coins murika is scattering for it.
lol, cope harder. so far ukraine has been unable to retake any significant areas despite their 200+ billion in funding while russia is beating sanctions pretty easily, expanding arms production, troop recruitment and rising economy. now tell me more about how good the western economies are doing. we’ll wait
donbass has legally been russian since the 2022 referenda, but ukr still occupies huge swathes of it. crimea has been russian since 2014, but rf is still incapable of defending it (the rf fleet had to be moved from sevastopol ffs).
above all kiev is still nzi run and nutto easily supplies missiles for it to hit behind rus lines at will.
rf is jumping thru murika’s hoops.
but rf cuts a damn good figure when jumping, which can not be said about the actor of his ukraine 🤡
ha-ha, well said! the goal is strategic safety. not liberation of donbas, not even liberation of whole malorossia (regions near kiev) with novorossia (black sea shore from odessa to caucasus mounts). global goal is to push nazis’ sponsors (fashington) out from eastern europe at least – move out from pribaltika, poland and romania with all military infrastructure build here after 1997.
thank you
no thank you for sending more money and eventually your children, to die for ukrainazia!!!! once again thank you!!!!
it seems pretty clear that russia is capable of defending crimea, or there would be aegis destroyers crashing into one another in the harbour at sebastopol and goofy identitarian ukretards would be parading their bandera icons through the streets.

french and us troops are leaving western africa. dollar has smaller part in international trade from year to year and could decline faster, if not taking the part of euro which is also declining. georgian prime-minister (the us puppet) refuses to fly to washington for report while parliament in tbilisi is voting for the law similar to fara act. eu and us are strongly against this law, but majority of the parliament will adopt it soon.
so everyone has their very own perception of what is happening.
it can also be read in german history books that winston churchill won the second world war.
today, you can hear in the german media every day that the ukrainian victory is about to happen – but not so loudly lately 😉
but it’s not about a ukr victory, and never was. it is about recreating rf in the image of ussr for western consumption and then picking off cis states one by one. lord cameron was in tajikistan and kyrgyzstan etc last week for this very purpose.
ukr is expendable, but the longer it holds out the easier it is to convince other euro/asian states that aligning with the west is their best bet. it’s already happening.
now that’s what i call analysis brilliant
it will be even more brilliant when you and finlayson are forced to send your children to the meat grinder!!!
western consumption is completely irrelevant. us strategy on the eurasian landmass is aimed at fracturing the russian state while preventing the economic integration of the states on that landmass, and preventing the hydrocarbons in the caspian basin from coming under the control of an entity outside of the us empire. us is being squeezed off the continent.

convincing tajikistan and krygistan they should abandon rf and align with west, so those nations can become failed states like ukrainazia??? perhaps the eurasian states want to turn their countries into rubble and lawless states like ukrainazia, libya and sudan, so they too can sell their children to wealthy western organ harvesters!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
you mean europe is expendable!!! the longer ukrainazia holds out it’s hand for more money the easier it will be to disrupt and destabilise nazi nato and impoverish the eu!!! printing money can only go so far until collapse!!!
good luck with convincing eurasian states that aligning with west is in their best interests!!! lord paedo cameron has not been very successful in convincing even his own nation of paedophiles that they need to send their children, not his, to fight russians in russia!!!
it’s not about ukrainian defeat either and seizing all ukrainian territory!!! it’s about making $usd toilet paper, impoverishing europe and america and creating conditions for us civil war 2.0!!! joe biden forever president, donald trump sentenced to 300 years in san quentin!!! maybe with luck your new found tajik friends can take take out a few dozen shopping centres in london!!!
the nuclear power plant zaporizhzhia? it has always been under russian control
i refer to the often overlooked oblast of zaporizhzhia which also held a referendum in 2022 (along with lpr and dpr) by which it decided to legally become a part of rf.
unfortunately rf has not been able to secure this region either or protect its (now russian) citizens.
in other words rf is failing to take back and secure that which is legally russian from the ukr nzi occupation.
the wrong link in chain of these thoughts is thinking that cis is something independent. but no, all collaborators, associates, sympathizers of western sodomites there are soros’ guys or same sodomites (sometimes literally) grown by ned foundation and state dept programs + lgbt. armenia is the brightest example. here is the 2nd biggest embassy of the us + 2000 ngos (for 3 mln population). pashinyan is like navalnyi, he is ruining armenia.
so the ukrainians are not retreating, and the russians are? you don’t say.
rus isn’t retreating, just falling way short of an effective response to murika’s antagonist moves globally. rf leadership is wholly inadequate, and terrified of taking on the west.
the us-provoked slaughter of 000s ukr slavs for no territorial gain by rus will rank alongside the gravest of ww1 trench errors. all because p hadn’t the stomach to take kiev in march 22 and put z and fellow ukrnzis on trial.
the us plays p like a fiddle, just like grbchv, just like yltsn..
the russian leadership has been taking on the us since the action at pristina airport in 1999. the us empire is the most powerful in human history, and the russians were not going to take kiev in 2022 if the us determined that it would be defended. this “slaughter of slavs’ business is as goofy as ukrainian identitarianism. and as goofy as your “west”.
us-kiev nzis were killing rus speakers in donbass from 2014. p failed to respond, got suckered by the minsk accords and stuck his fingers in his ears until feb 22.
rus failed to back serbia 1999, iraq 2003, libya 2011 and palestine ever since 1991. rus allows isr to attack syria at will wherever it chooses (while murika steals syrian oil and wheat for fun).
and p still sells energy cheaply to usa and eu, mainly because rf is run by us-friendly oligarchs.
absolute rubbish. the notion that the russian state was going to “back serbia” in 1999 is absurd. russia was not capable of opposing the us in the former yugoslavia. are you seriously trying to argue that russia should have militarily intervened to save the failed us puppet regime in baghdad in 2003? russia is a mid-level regional power, while the us was the most powerful empire in history.
‘russia is a mid-level regional power’
vs
‘russian leadership has been taking on the us since.. ..1999’
both statements are disingenuous.
up until the rise of china only rf was able to go toe to toe with the west. problem is, despite massive armaments (and unlike the houthis or hezbollah or post war ussr) rf hasn’t the spine to go toe to toe with usa – as syria is finding out.
again, there is no such thing as “the west”. the soviet union was not capable of “going toe to toe” with the american empire, and never, ever did so. russia is absolutely a mid-level power, with nothing approaching the clout of the us empire, which owns europe, japan, latin america and a lot of africa and asia. thanks for derping.

don’t worry, seizing all of ukraine will more than make up for all other disappointments!!! yeah the nazis were killing russians speakers since 2014, about 14000 of them is a terrible loss, but the 500 thousand ukros killed since 2022 more than makes up for it!!! the united paedphiles of joe biden will keep crumbling like its infrastructure and eus gdp, while russia will keep its economy booming!!!

paedo biden, lord paedo cameron and your fuhrer von der lying are the ones being played!!! please send more money to ukrainazia and all cis countries, surely they will fall for all that worthless paper backed by debt only!!! maybe they will all abandon russia, china and their resource backed currency for worthless toilet paper, that they won’t be able to spend anywhere, other than in migrant unfriendly western nations!!!

if the russian state continues to exist, then the russians are winning. the entire us strategy in the region is aimed at the dissolution of that state.
that is a ludicrous zero sum assertion. as long as murika and nutto are able to keep chipping away at rf and destabilising neighboring states then rf is losing not winning the long game.
the fact cameron is bringing tajikistan (and kyrgyzstan) into the uk’s orbit means the crocus city hall massacre worked. rus took the bait and alienated a key ally. day after day rf is being out thought.
when rf proudly parade obsolete us weaponry in moscow the west laughs.
kirgizia had the us military base in kant, now its base of rus. airforce. tajikistan has no foreign bases, just 12th base of russian border guards (a motoinfantry division actually). so cameron could fly and drop some helicopter money (200-300 mln, it’s close to zero), but it’s nothing that russia gives to these territories, because millions from here are working in russia and sending money to families.
kirgizia is also adopted their own fara act to prevent foreign interference via “non-governmental” organizations, which are the branches of western spying structures. england now is not one of grands and has not enough resources to influence like it was 100 years ago, so cameron have almost nothing to give. people here are fed to the illness with soros’s programs and don’t buy liberal-sodomite crap as it was 30 and even 10 years ago. they want traditional family values instead lgbt.
you keep referring to “the west”. there’s no such thing. again, the us strategic aim is to collapse the russian state, and to assert control over the resultant fragments, occured in yugoslavia. five eyes and other vassal media made a very big deal about the weapons sent to the ukraine. nobody is laughing about it. you’re a funny creature, to be sure.

rf gewinnt seit beginn der sonderoperation und letztlich auch den krieg. – das gefällt nicht allen, lässt sich offensichtlich aber von den nato-ukrozz nicht verhindern 😉
rf has been winning the special operation and ultimately the war since the beginning. – not everyone likes this, but obviously it cannot be prevented by the nato-ukrozz 😉
the cope of those ukro/nato-nazis is admirable. its almost like listening to a modern woman and the refusal to take accountability for its failures!
guillable clowns!
🤡 😆😆😆
25 strikes in a week ??? that’s less than 4 a day israeli triples that in gaza every 15 minutes i’m not going to mention that germany in ww2 took all of ukraine including crimea in 28 days
yes, they took it. and then they lost it.
maybe russia has learnt something from the soviets, unlike us westerners.
but then again, it does not matter, as long as you eurotards do our amerikkkan bidding, everything is going to plan, you guillable clowns!
🤡 😆😆😆
and not for 28 days. crimea was fighting a year till july 1942 and was liberated in april-may 1944 in 5 weeks.
so how’s it working out for the us and their ukrainian puppet forces today? they’ve had ten years to finish ethnically cleansing donbas and retake crimea. why are these nazis so incompetent compared to their forbears?

not looking good for the satanist and neocons, send their old weapons garbage to ukraine would not help them. but the satanist are clever (they send old weapons with the promise u.s.a will provide them new weapons (help usa military industrial complex and $$$), also with all this mess they are pushing the “hegel philosophy” of evolution comes through conflicts, they are pushing for transhumanism, lgbt agenda, mass propaganda, the complete erase of sanity and reason to the western human cattle.
after they achieve their statistics goals they will wipe out the brainwashed human cattle, a new holocaust to please the satanist one more time. the western civilization controlled by the hidden empire that turns to be controlled by the satanist will double down, will continue, because they will not die, only their slaves and lackeys fought their wars and protect their corrupted values and their “hidden goals”. listen their dialect and discover what they aren’t telling you.

“what are you even bragging about?” – russian soldier’s wife slams kremlin for displaying captured weapons. russian soldier’s wife urges her husband to hide “under bushes” when his group moves forward on assault.
she says: ” didn’t you fall out of a tree? are they shooting from a machine gun? and you’re not sitting in a tree? kolya, are you crazy? my god….?””well, okay, kolya. the main thing is to hide under the bushes. don’t get ahead of everyone. the assault begins, and you’re under a bush. damn it. just sit there while the rest move forward”.
riveting. clearly, though, the lady’s advice is not being heeded, or the ukrainians wouldn’t continue to receive the absolute thrashing that they do.
