The General Staff data as of October 4 show systematic enemy losses across all categories of weaponry. The heaviest damage has been recorded in armored vehicles, UAVs, and artillery, highlighting the effectiveness of defensive operations.
We remind that over the past day, 162 combat clashes were recorded along the front, with the highest enemy activity observed in the Pokrovsk and Novopavlivka directions. The occupiers carried out 70 airstrikes, dropping 174 guided aerial bombs, and shelled Ukrainian positions 4,606 times, including 104 strikes using multiple launch rocket systems.
It should be noted that Russia has circulated distorted information regarding the recent strike in Chernihiv region in an attempt to justify its actions. In official statements, the Russian Ministry of Defense claimed that "Ukrainian Armed Forces trucks carrying drones" had been destroyed, while in reality, ordinary freight trucks transporting grain came under fire.
