The local government of Ukraine said that as of 9 a.m. on the same day, Russia had attacked a total of 11 oblasts in the past 24 hours, including Khmelnytskyi, Vinnytsia, Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, Sumy, Chernihiv, Mykolaiv, Kherson and Donetsk oblasts, killing at least five civilians and wounding 13 civilians. [214] Between midnight and early morning, Ukraine said Russia launched 17 drones from Cape Choda, Russian-occupied Crimea, and air defense forces shot down 16 drones over Mykolaiv, Odessa, Kherson, Dnipropetrovsk, Vinnytsia and Khmelnytsky oblasts. In addition, the Russian army launched 1 Kh-59 missile from Russian-occupied Donetsk. [215] The Kharkiv Oblast Prosecutor's Office said that at least one civilian was killed and two civilians were injured as a result of Russian shelling of Monachnivka, Kharkiv Oblast. [216] Ukraine's State Emergency Service said at least three civilians were injured in a missile strike by Russian forces on a residential area in Konstantinovka, Donetsk Oblast. [217] Separately, the State Emergency Service said at least two civilians were injured in a Russian attack on the city of Kupyansk in Kharkiv Oblast. [218] The governor of Donetsk Oblast said that at least two civilians were killed and eight civilians were injured in Russian attacks on New York and Krasnohorivka, respectively. [219]

Since the full-scale invasion, Russia has lost 451,730 soldiers in Ukraine, 840 casualties among Russian forces over the past day, and cumulative losses of 7,146 tanks, 13,698 armored combat vehicles, 15,339 vehicles and fuel tanks, 11,486 artillery systems, 1,042 multiple launch rocket systems, 755 air defense systems, 347 aircraft, 325 helicopters, 9,161 drones, 2,069 cruise missiles, 26 ships and 1 submarine, etc. [220]

The Russian Defense Ministry said air defense forces shot down four drones over Rostov Oblast and one over Belgorod Oblast between midnight and early morning. The governor of the Rostov region said that the drone was shot down over the Novoshakhtinsk mine in the Rostov region at 3:10 a.m. local time. [221] The governor of the Belgorod region said that at least two people were injured as a result of a Ukrainian drone strike that damaged the administrative building of the Russian state-owned enterprise Gazprom. [222]

The press service of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation said that the Russian paratroopers used anti-tank missile systems to destroy the UAV signal repeater set up by the Armed Forces of Ukraine at the center of Chasov Yar at a distance of 8 km. [223] [224] The adviser to the leader of the Russian-occupied Donetsk revealed to TASS that some soldiers of the 41st Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine surrendered to the Russian army in Chasov Yar, and the Ukrainian army lost hundreds of personnel and dozens of weapons and equipment in Chasovyar and its surrounding areas. [225]

The Russian military is producing and deploying a new subsonic cruise missile, the Kh-69, to re-attack Ukraine's energy infrastructure and air defense systems, and on the night of April 11, Russia used the missile to destroy the Tripillia power plant in Kyiv Oblast, and Russian forces launched the Kh-69 missile at a distance of 400 kilometers from the target, exceeding the previous estimated range of 300 kilometers and the 200-kilometer range of the latest Kh-59MK2 variant. [226]

Russia's troops are being sent from military forces in the Far East, including the Pacific Fleet, to replenish personnel losses in Ukraine, the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine said, and that the commander of the Pacific Fleet has stopped rotating to Syria and instead sent about 2,000 personnel to Ukraine from the Russian Far East. [227]

With the assistance of the National Security Service of Ukraine, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the State Emergency Service and the Armed Forces, as well as the International Committee of the Red Cross, Ukraine has managed to bring back the bodies of 99 Ukrainian soldiers killed in the fight against Russia, according to the Ukrainian Headquarters for the Coordination of the Treatment of Prisoners of War. [228] The Ukrainian side returned the remains of 23 Russian soldiers to Russia. [229]

Ukrainian Prime Minister Shmygal said that the Ukrainian government has allocated nearly $100 million in additional funds for the construction of fortifications, of which $43 million will be used to build fortifications in Kharkiv Oblast, $38 million will be spent in Sumy Oblast, and additional funds will be provided to Donetsk, Kherson and Mykolaiv Oblasts. [230] [231] Separately, Shmygal said that the Ukrainian government would allocate funds for the purchase of electronic warfare systems to protect Ukraine's critical infrastructure. [232] The leadership of Ukraine's state-run Central Energy Company said that the Tripilya power station in Kyiv Oblast could be repaired with international help, but that the restoration effort would be futile without more air defense systems. [233]

Russian state media, citing Telegram channel news, reported that a former employee of the State Security Service of Ukraine had an explosion while passing through the West Gunino highway in Moscow, resulting in leg injuries, and the investigative department has opened a criminal investigation into the incident. [234] A U.S. man who joined the Russian army in 2014 and fought against Ukraine has disappeared in the Russian-occupied Donetsk region, the Russian Telegram channel Mash, citing Russian-occupied Donetsk police sources. [235]

The U.S. and U.K. governments have announced that they will block Russian metal producers from making profits from the London Metal Exchange and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, and ban Russian exports of aluminum, copper and nickel from the world's largest metal exchanges. [236]

James David Vance, a junior senator from Ohio in the United States, called for an end to funding for Ukraine in an article in The New York Times. The article points out that in order to defend against a Russian attack, Ukraine needs 4 million artillery shells and thousands of Patriot missiles per year, and the United States simply does not have the industrial capacity to produce such a number of weapons and cannot let Ukraine win. [237]
