September 4, 2024
Over the last 24 hours between September 3 and 4, 2024, the AFU losses have amounted to up to 450 troops and 17 armored units, including a tank, an infantry fighting vehicle and 15 armored combat vehicles, 40 motor vehicles, four artillery guns, including three French-made Caesar self-propelled artillery systems, a US-made M777 artillery system, as well as two launch pads of US-made multiple launch rocket systems or MLRS, including an M142 HIMARS and an M270 MLRS.
Overall, since the onset of combat in the region, the adversary has lost over 9,700 personnel that is around 80% of the entire invading force.
Other losses include: 81 tanks, 39 infantry fighting vehicles, 70 armored personnel carriers, 576 armored combat vehicles, 313 motor vehicles, 72 artillery guns, 22 launch pads of multiple launch rocket systems, including seven HIMARS and three other MLRS, eight launch pads of air defense systems, two transport-loading vehicles, 17 radio-electronic warfare stations, seven counterbattery radars, two air defense radars, eight units of engineering equipment as well as two obstacle-clearing vehicles and one UR-77 mine-clearing vehicle.
Russian aviation delivered strikes on enemy reserves in dozens of locations in the Ukrainian Sumy Region, bordering Russian Kursk Region.
Earlier, former president Zelensky who has lost its presidential powers in May 2024 said that the Ukrainian incursion into Russia was part of a plan to end the hostilities. However, his statement is an utter lie. It has been exposed by a Ukrainian POW who admitted on the Russian Vesti FM federal radio station on September 4, 2024 that the main task of his sabotage group was to seize the Kursk NPP and to plant high-explosive mines there to blackmail the USA and NATO for extra arms.
On August 6, 2024 the Ukrainian AFU attacked Russia’s Kursk Region. Local residents living near the border areas have been evacuated to safer territories inside Russia where they are staying in 200 temporary shelters across 31 Russian regions.
According to President Vladimir Putin, the Ukrainian provocation in the Kursk Region is doomed to failure, and after it, Russia’s opponents “will have a desire to really – not in words, but in deeds – to move to peaceful negotiations and settle these issues peacefully,” he said on September 2.
