This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Small arms, ATGMs, MANPADS, loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles, trailers and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it is not included in the list. The Soviet flag is used when the equipment in question was produced prior to 1991. This list is constantly updated as additional footage becomes available.

“Yevgeny Nikolayevich Prilepin, writing as Zakhar Prilepin, and sometimes using another pseudonym, Yevgeny Lavlinsky, is a Russian writer. He was the leader of the national-conservative political party For Truth from 1 February 2020 until it merged into the pro-Kremlin A Just Russia in February 2021.”

Did I miss the reason for finding no tank destructions in April? Last I knew the supposition was that the guy running Oryx needed a break, but I don’t see any corrections happening. Or will we see an inflated May total that reflects catching up with April? Or is he just moving on with confirming new tank destructions since he’s back to work?
Prilepin was a neo-Bolshevik. His self-identification. He was leader of the banned National Bolshevik Party, which sought the violent re-establishment of the Soviet Union, until they merged with Putin’s party (apparently deciding that Putin was neo-Soviet enough for them). He was fiercely pro-war, and was killed while heading off to fight in the Donbas.

I think ORYX has updated all items now.
April had a few issues. Primarily, the RuZZian offensive failed and ended, reducing/minimizing additional losses.
April saw some RuZZian tank losses but was offset with elimination of duplicates.
“A few weeks ago somebody killed Vladlen Tatarsky in Sankt Petersburg, today an attempt on Zakhar Prilepin in Nizhny Novgorord. If there would be a fight between Russian factions then this is how it looked like. “

“washing his hands 200 times per day.”
Doesn’t everyone?
Except both Prilepin and Tatarsky were ferociously pro-war criminals.
More RuZZians in buildings being blown up.
“After incinerating the apartment blocks in this area of Bakhmut, Russians have launched an offensive this morning. But it appears that this ruined apartment block was mined and possibly full of Russians when it was blown up. Coordinates of that building:”

Putin does, but all of Neptune’s oceans cannot wash the blood clean from his hand.
“According to preliminary reports, Prilepin was seriously wounded, his driver died.”
