Russian Armed Forces continued strikes on the military infrastructure of Ukraine. On the night of April 4, the command post of the 24th separate mechanized brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and nearby warehouses with ammunition, weapons and military equipment were destroyed in a strike in the area of the city of Lysichansk.

The Russian side added that as a result of the April 3 strike on the Balovnoye airfield, in the suburbs of Nikolaev, three helicopters of the Ukrainian Armed Forces were eliminated.

During the past night, operational-tactical aviation of the Russian Aerospace Forces hit 14 military facilities of Ukraine. The targets included two command posts, two launchers of Buk-M1 anti-aircraft missile systems in the Krasnogorsk and Verkhnetoretskoye regions, an artillery battery, two depots of rocket, artillery weapons and ammunition, and three fuel depots, as well as 6 strongholds and areas of concentration of military equipment.

Also, Russian air defense forces shot down six unmanned aerial vehicles in the air in the areas of the settlements of Nikolaev, Kherson, Kurakhovka, Industrialnoye, Velyka Novoselka.

Russian side, since the beginning of the special operation, Russian forces have destroyed 125 aircraft, 91 helicopters, 392 unmanned aerial vehicles, 226 anti-aircraft missile systems, 1936 tanks and other armored combat vehicles, 211 multiple rocket launchers, 833 field artillery guns and mortars, as well as 1810 units of special military vehicles.

Russians will start advancing from the east and south. Once Severodonetsk and Lischiansk falls, then Kramatorsk and Sloviansk will fall. Then up towards Zaporzizha from south while group advances west from Sumy and Kharkiv.

So Russians will be outside Kiev again one way or another in the next 6 months maybe year, but with much better logistics and reinforcements this time as opposed to going through Belarus like they did last month.
