ZSU did not specify where in Ukraine the strikes were inflicted.
“Chornobayvka” refers to the village of the same name, located in the Kherson region of Ukraine.
A total of 18 successful attacks on Russian positions by the Ukrainian armed forces were carried out in the village after the bombing and takeover of the airport by the Russian armed forces.
The attacks reportedly led to the deaths of Russian Generals Andrei Mordvichev on March 18th and Yakov Rezantsev on March 24th.
Russian troops invaded Ukraine on February 24 in what the Kremlin now calls a “special military operation” to “protect Donbass.” Monday marks the 75th day of the campaign.
From February 24 to May 9, the total combat losses of Russian troops amounted to about 25,650 people, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The Ukrainian military also claims that Russia has lost 1,145 tanks, 2,764 armored combat vehicles, 513 artillery systems, 185 multiple rocket launchers, 87 anti-aircraft systems, 199 combat aircraft, 158 helicopters, 1970 motor vehicles and fuel tanks, 377 tanker. tactical unmanned aerial vehicles, 41 units of special equipment and 94 cruise missiles.
The update comes when Russian President Vladimir Putin speaks at a huge military parade on Moscow’s Red Square on Victory Day.
The annual event marks the defeat of Nazi Germany at the hands of the Soviet Union during World War II.
Putin used his speech to claim that Russian troops in eastern Ukraine were “defending the homeland.”
He also said a “special military operation” in Ukraine was needed and provoked by the West.
However, he did not make any major statement about the invasion, as many have speculated.
Russia said 65,000 personnel, 2,400 units of military equipment and more than 400 aircraft took part in Monday’s parade in 28 Russian cities.
Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky said in his own Victory Day speech Monday that Russia is repeating Nazi atrocities.
He also condemned the heavy shelling by Russia in eastern Ukraine, saying 60 were killed when a school building turned into a shelter in Luhansk Oblast.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg has called on Putin to end the invasion of Ukraine immediately.
