Between midnight and early morning, Russia launched 17 drones from Russian-occupied Crimea, and air defense forces shot down all drones from Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk and Poltava oblasts, the Ukrainian Air Force said. [113] The governor of Ukraine's Kharkiv region said that Russian forces used drones to attack Kharkiv between midnight and early morning, damaging a private home, injuring at least three civilians. [114] Separately, the governor of Kharkiv Oblast said that Russian forces launched two missile strikes on central Kharkiv during the day, injuring at least five civilians. [115] The governor of Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia region said that Russian forces fired BM-21 rocket launchers at Hopolia in southeastern Zaporizhzhia Oblast, killing at least three civilians and wounding one. [116] Ukraine's State Emergency Service said at least one civilian was killed by Russia in the bombing of a four-story apartment building in the city of Kupyansk in northeastern Kharkiv Oblast.

Since the start of the full-scale invasion, Russia has lost 447,510 soldiers in Ukraine, 820 casualties among Russian forces over the past day, cumulative losses of 7,074 tanks, 13,551 armored combat vehicles, 15,071 vehicles and fuel tanks, 11,316 artillery systems, 1,036 multiple launch rocket systems, 749 air defense systems, 347 aircraft, 325 helicopters, 8,956 drones, 2,060 cruise missiles, 26 ships and 1 submarine, among others. [118] Ukraine expects to face a new round of Russian offensive in late spring or early summer, intensifying around the Donbas region in eastern Ukraine, and a potential Russian offensive could target key targets in Donetsk Oblast, including Chasiv Yar, the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. [119]

Rosatom issued a statement accusing the Ukrainian army of attacking the nuclear power plant several times, the first hit near the canteen, injuring at least three employees, without specifying what kind of weapon, about half an hour later, a drone hit the cargo loading and unloading area, and the other hit the dome of the sixth reactor. Russian media quoted sources from the nuclear power plant as saying that about 20 minutes before the incident, IAEA experts were inspecting the area around the canteen and said that the radiation level in the area was normal after the attack. The Russian Foreign Ministry described the incident as nuclear terrorism. IAEA Director General Grossi said agency employees confirmed that the sealed structure of the main reactor, which had been hit by drones at least three times, warned that it would increase the risk of a major nuclear accident. The Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine denied that the Ukrainian side was involved, and instead pointed out that it was directed and acted by the Russian side. [120] [121] [122]

The governor of Russia's Belgorod region said air defense forces shot down four Ukrainian drones over Belgorod Oblast, killing one person and injuring four others as a result of the wreckage. [123]

Despite the loss of supplies and personnel, Russian forces continue to intensify offensive operations on the front line, and Russia continues to intensify its offensive near Russian-occupied Bakhmut and Avdiivka in an attempt to break through the frontline positions, according to the non-profit think tank "Institute for the Study of War".
