I think none, because it was expected by most members on this thread, nevermind Russian MoD.
The War in the Ukraine

Appeared a video confirmation of heavy losses of men of the "Russian Free Legion".
Basically, a pile of bodies with their flags, patches, etc.
For obvious reasons I won't post it, but for those interested it wouldn't be hard to find the video on Twitter.

Well, by this doc :
Each batalion has 4 battery.
The USA has 60 Patriot batteries, so Ukraine is asking "just" for 86% of USA patriot system.
Sorry, it is ALL system in practice, 4 batteries under modernisation, so after sending 50 to Ukriane the USA will be left with 6 PAtriot batteries.
If we consider that Ukraine had around 100 S-300 battery then ALL of the USA patriot inventory could replace half of the lost Ukrainan SAM systems.
Additional gem :
Not a suprise the backwardness of the PAtriot, considering its low production volume compared to the S-300 systems.
Only six set received higher power MPQ-65 radars, but those are still small, X band radars, without options for mast, lacking S band search function, and so on.
Again , the USA Patriot is primitive, backwards , but at least cheap . Not for the army, but for the manufacturer.
PAthetic, isn't it?
MPQ-53 and 65 tho are all C band. it has diameter of 2.5 meters kinda similar as 5N63.
The 53/65 doing not only the job of the 5N63, but the battalion level 64N6 as well.
And on the S-300 side it is only the two basic radar required to function, without all additional radars for specific purposes.
The C/X band border is 8 ghz, the patriot operate under this, the 5N63 above it.
Means the S-300 generating narrover,more powerfull beam, and the 53 wider, weaker one, because it used for aquisiton as well.
Patriot is a jack of all trades.
T-90M destroyed by artillery
Ukrainian Air Assault Forces destroyed a Russian MT-LB
RU BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicle was destroyed by 40mm grenades
its kind of weird that all of them are abandoned why is that?

Ukrainian invasion force towards the Belgorod area gets hit by Russian artillery using night vision.
Another kind of UAV from Zala. It loiters and looks for targets which a Lancet will be sent. Here it also shows the effects on a target.
From 0.39 onwards, this clip shows an M777 spotted by a drone, and a Lancet sent afterwards to it with devastating results.
