According to the Russian Defense Ministry Spokesperson Igor Konashenkov, Russia has destroyed more than 2,900 Ukrainian military facilities since it began its military operation in Ukraine.

In a briefing, the Spokesperson detailed the total losses of 2,911 military facilities, which include "97 aircraft, 107 unmanned aerial vehicles, 141 air defense anti-aircraft missile systems, 86 radar posts, 986 tanks, and other armored combat vehicles, 107 multiple launch rocket systems, 368 field artillery guns and mortars, 749 units of special military vehicles."

Last week, Russia's Defense Ministry announced that Russian military forces took complete control of the Ukrainian regional center of Kherson.

On his account, MoD Spokesperson Igor Konashenkov said that "the city does not face shortages of food and essential goods”, adding that negotiations between the Russian command, the administration of the city, and the region are underway to address issues of maintaining the functioning of social infrastructure facilities, ensuring law and order, as well as the safety of the population.”

"LPR forces, with fire support from the Russian armed forces, are continuing successful offensive operations as they have seized control over the settlements of Starobelsk and Svatovo. Since the start of [Russia's] special military operation, the depth of advance has been 75 kilometers", Konashenkov added.

The top Russian military figure noted that DPR forces have also expanded their zone, taking control of Kalinovka, Lebedinskoye, Pionerskoye, Nikolayevka, and Osipenko. 

"DPR forces have advanced by 58 kilometers since the start of the operation," he added.

Sources to Al Mayadeen: Black Sea Fleet ships docked across Odessa heading to Crimea 

Al-Mayadeen correspondent in Moscow quoted private sources as saying that the Russian ships that were docked at Odessa began to head toward Crimea.

According to private sources, the reason, as of yet, is still unknown. The source considered that it may be a military maneuver, or the Russian leadership decided not to enter this city, or it may be related to the crisis situation in Mariupol and the need to direct the Russian military force to Mariupol to resolve the situation there.
