Ukraine continues to drag out its failing offensive attempts in the Donetsk, Krasny Liman and South Donetsk Directions, the ministry said, adding that the Russian armed forces have repulsed an attack by Ukrainian troops in the direction of South Donetsk, three attacks toward Krasny Liman and nine toward Donetsk.
"During the hostilities, as many as 250 Ukrainian military service members, one tank, three armored combat vehicles, four cars, two pickup trucks, a Krab self-propelled artillery mount, a D-20 howitzer, as well as a US-made counter-battery combat radar were destroyed [in the Donetsk direction]," the ministry said in a statement.
