Staggering Russian Losses At Siverskyi Donets River
Even more Russian losses from the failed bridging attempt over the Siverskyi Donets River.
In our estimation, we can see (Not previously posted images; we have removed all duplicates) no less than 28x BMP/BMD, 6x BTR/similar armour, 1x T-72B tank, 1x Truck, 1x MT-LB.
In case that wasn't enough, there was also drone footage posted of a wider area.
Though we cannot classify all vehicles as destroyed or abandoned, there is approx. 7x BMP/MT-LB and 7x T-72B more seen- again, we have tried to avoid what we have previously posted. A huge loss.

Russian Armor Destroyed By Ukrainian Artillery
The Ukrainian 25th Airborne Brigade released drone footage of an artillery operation that targeted two Russian T-72 tanks and a BMP-2 infantry fighting vehicle. The video ends before an accurate battle damage assessment can be made, but judging by the accuracy of the strikes, the vehicles were likely severely damaged and possibly destroyed.
The use of drones in combat has significantly increased the effectiveness and lethality of artillery operations. Adjustments can be made in realtime with better accuracy than traditional forward observer procedures without the risk of putting soldiers within close proximity to the enemy.

2 Russian Raptor Patrol Boats Destroyed By Bayraktar TB2 Drone
Two Russian Project 03160 "Raptor" patrol boats were targeted by Ukrainian Navy Bayraktar TB-2 drones in the Black Sea, reportedly near Snake Island. Based on the footage, it appears the boats were heavily damaged, probably destroyed.
This footage is some of the first confirmed Bayraktar activity we have seen in days or weeks. Russia reportedly only fielded less than 20 of the Raptor patrol boats. In mid to late March, Azov Regiment posted a video showing an ATGM strike on a Raptor patrol boat.

Russian 2S1 Gvozdika Used LikeTank In Mariupol
During fighting in Mariupol, Russian forces were recorded using a 2S1 Gvozdika self-propelled howitzer in direct fire mode to engage Ukrainian positions and rubble buildings.
The 2S1 Gvozdika is essentially an artillery piece that is driven, rather than towed, by its gun team. It is designed to fire high explosive artillery rounds at targets several kilometers away. However, in this video it is being used in a similar fashion to a main battle tank, firing its gun at visible targets at relatively close range.
The Gvozdika likely doesn't have the heavy armor protection of a T-72, but based on the footage that is coming out of Ukraine, tank armor isn't looking all that effective anyway.
