Ukrainian army destroys 36 invaders, 13 units of military equipment in southern Ukraine on Apr 16

The Ukrainian military destroyed 36 Russian aggressors and 13 units of military equipment in the southern direction on April 16.

The Operational Command South reported this on Facebook, according to Ukrinform.

It is noted that the enemy continues to carry out artillery and missile strikes on cities and villages in southern Ukraine.

"The enemy fired 5 cruise missiles and volley fire systems in Mykolaiv region over the past day, damaging infrastructure; no casualties reported. In Kherson region, the enemy's main efforts were focused on attempts to establish control over the region and maintain the occupied positions,” the report says.

In particular, the Russian invaders continue to exert psychological pressure through their propaganda TV channels and biased Crimean TV channels, spreading fakes about the war in Ukraine. Intimidation and terror of the civilian population also continues.

As Ukrinform reported, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Russian troops lost about 20,100 personnel in Ukraine from February 24 to April 16.
