Russian Losses
- 530 KIA (average), 8 tanks (significant), 19 APVs (heavy losses), 27 artillery systems (jumped up from 19, worrying for Russians)

- Perpetua's list shows losses on both sides but higher ratios for Russia. Includes surveillance/comms equipment, trucks. Ukraine lost artillery including Western-provided M109.
Other Hits and Losses
- Entire local family (couple, baby, 12-year-old son) killed by Russian shelling in Kherson

Other News
