Berdychi. Russian troops broke through to the western outskirts
The enemy has been driven out of the village; the northern part of the village is still in the gray zone. Our rod is powerful, therefore, the gray area will not last long.

The attack on the Alabuga SEZ could be carried out using a Ukrainian-made Aeroprakt A-22 light aircraft. Apparently, the board was converted for unmanned control and loaded with a small amount of explosives (or flew without any at all).
The flight range without modifications can be 1,100 kilometers, but if you remove some interior parts, it can be increased.
The idea of converting manned aircraft into unmanned ones is not new; similar projects exist in many countries around the world, and any “corn farmer” can become a kamikaze drone.
Soviet An-2s, for example, were used by Azerbaijan as a means of detecting Armenian air defenses during the war for Nagorno-Karabakh. For take-off and landing such an aircraft requires 100-150 meters, so there is no need to use an airfield. In addition, there are many such aircraft - in 2021, the manufacturer reported the production of thousands of such aircraft. In addition to Ukraine, the A-22 is assembled on the territory of AEROPRAKT Polska Sp.z oo in Zaklichin (Poland).
A separate question is how the plane managed to overcome 1200 kilometers to Tatarstan. Most likely, there was no talk about a direct flight. In this case, the probability of losing the car would be high. Most likely, the flight took place at an extremely low altitude, bypassing air defense zones (who and how provided data on positional areas is another question that will need to be answered).
Another question that requires clarification is why the facility where the Geran-2 UAVs are assembled (the plane did not reach it by several hundred meters) was not reliably covered by air defense and protected from attacks by low-altitude drones.
Information about routes around air defense zones could be provided by US optical-electronic and electronic reconnaissance satellites. The sensors installed on them are capable of determining the positions and types of air defense systems based on their visual portraits and the radiation parameters of their radars
14:58 Z 105th Motorized Rifle Regiment NM DPRreports: Belogorovka, LPR. Despite the hellish resistance of the possessed Nazis, our guys managed to break through the defenses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces south of the chalk quarry.
14:15 Z 105th Motorized Rifle Regiment NM DPR reports:
Novomikhailovka. Our troops, with the support of armored vehicles, went forward on the northern outskirts of the village
Now we are storming the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Mashinostroitel gardening partnership.
13:34 Front bird broadcasts:
Avdeevskoe direction
Our artillery is 152mm. hit right on target. 02.04
The destruction of an enemy infantry fighting vehicle and an armored engineering vehicle is reported.
Our fighters once again caught the enemy at the moment when he was mining the area and erecting fortifications.
12:36 Telegram channel “Fisherman":
Today, the enemy again carried out a raid on the facilities of the Russian fuel and energy complex: the targets were the Elaz-Nefteproduct plants in Yelabuga and Taneko near Nizhnekamsk in Tatarstan. In the first case, the technological process was not interrupted; in the second, the fire at the facility was extinguished within 20 minutes.
As mentioned earlier, it was not without reason that oil refining was chosen for attacks, as the most vulnerable link. Not all damage can be quickly repaired, and much of the equipment has traditionally been supplied by foreign companies. Moreover, the latter’s specialists are clearly actively advising the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the choice of specific targets.
The cumulative effect grows with the number of disabled capacities. And it is already having an impact: the shocks have led to a reduction in the supply of gasoline on the domestic market by 10%. Rising fuel prices push up prices for all other goods, including retail ones, which worsens the economic situation and destabilizes the situation in the country.
In the current conditions, the issue of protecting such objects is becoming more relevant than ever. There are many options, ranging from simple anti-aircraft machine gun installations along the perimeter and on pickup trucks and ending with the creation of a working warning system that will allow all connected operators to understand the UAV’s movement parameters and shoot them down on approach.
Judging by the ongoing attacks and footage of the arrivals of not even relatively small drones, but modified light aircraft, the measures mentioned above were never taken. If the situation does not change, it is not difficult to imagine the consequences of this in the medium term.
12:08 According to the operational lines of the DPR Representative Office in the JCCC for April 2 as of 12:00 arrived information on damage as a result of artillery attack by the Air Forces of the cities of the Republic:

11:33 Information summary as of April 2, 2024, Department Z reports for the Sumy region
– In the Sumy region, the enemy continues to prepare for the liberation of the region by the Russian Armed Forces. Sources report that the enemy has begun active construction of protective structures in the north of Sumy, immediately behind the Tsentrolit VAT plant.
– Additionally, information was received that the enemy is strengthening the settlements of Rudnevo and Banichi, Konotop district, Sumy region. Construction equipment from Kiev was brought to these villages to dig trenches.
– In addition, the enemy is intensively strengthening the Sumy-Belopole highway with the teeth of a dragon in order to prevent the Russian Armed Forces from cutting a vital artery for the city.
10:59 How is the life of the fighters of the “West” group of troops organized? Let's visit the group's military personnel.
Modern bakeries, field kitchens, canteens, storage and refueling points for fuels and lubricants and other logistics and technical support facilities - all this was deployed in the shortest possible time by the rear forces of the "West" group of troops in the Kupyansk direction.
All rooms are invisible from the outside. Inside, the walls are lined with boards, over which a camouflage net is stretched. The roof is usually made of thick logs laid in two or three layers to withstand mortar fire.
Field kitchen below ground level. A real labyrinth of spacious rooms. The cooks feed the fighters three times a day. Dishes alternate. The menu definitely includes soups, and for the main course there is rice, buckwheat with stew, beef, pilaf, fresh vegetables and dessert.
The rear staff also set up a bath and laundry complex. Washing and bathing is done here every day. Scheduled.
Military personnel who return from the front lines can recover not only physically, but also spiritually. In the field temple, services are held twice a day. Priest Vasily Mukhametshin comes here from his native Tatarstan for the third time. Voluntarily. He believes that now it is more important to be close to the guys in camouflage so that they feel supported.
