Russian Defense Ministry announced the liberation of two areas, while Ukrainian military suffered heavy losses but suspected Russian military exaggerated the results.

According to RT, a Russian state-owned media outlet

On the 4th, the Russian Ministry of Defense issued a notice stating that the soldiers of the "Western" Army Group of Russia liberated the Redykovobu Village in the Donetsk People's Republic. In addition, the "Northern" Army Group of Russia liberated the village of Kondratovka in the Sumy Region.

· On the same day, the Ukrainian armed forces lost about 1475 military personnel in the special military operation area;

· The Russian armed forces destroyed the launcher, radar, and control cabin of the German-made IRIS-T SAM missile;

· The Russian air defense forces shot down three HIMARS rockets and 109 Ukrainian military drones on the same day.

It is suspected that the Russian army has exaggerated its achievements. Recent successful attacks launched by Ukraine against Russia have changed the perception of the Russian army and intelligence system. Only when there are no opportunities can the illusion of enemy surprise attacks be eliminated, but the reality is that Russia is full of loopholes, and Ukraine repeatedly succeeds.
