Glory to Ukraine! The four hundred sixty-third day of large-scale military aggression by the Russian Federation against our country has begun.
The Russian Federation, suffering heavy losses, continues its occupation war. It employs a tactic of terror, attempting to intimidate the population of Ukraine and strikes not only at military but also civilian targets.
Last night, the enemy again used operational-tactical missile systems "Iskander" against objects of civil and critical infrastructure in Kyiv Oblast. Prior to this, 10 out of 10 missiles were destroyed by the efforts and means of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Over the past day, the enemy carried out three missile strikes and twenty-nine air raids, conducted forty-nine artillery attacks on positions of our troops and populated areas. Unfortunately, there are casualties among civilians, private residential buildings, and other infrastructure have been damaged.
The likelihood of missile and air strikes across all of Ukraine remains very high.
The enemy continues to concentrate its main efforts on attempts at full occupation of Luhansk and Donetsk Oblasts. Over the past day, units of the Territorial Defense Forces repelled twenty-one enemy attacks.
On the Volyn and Polesie Directions, the operational situation remains unchanged; no signs of forming offensive groupings have been detected.

Despite numerous appeals from the UN and world leaders, occupiers continue to transform temporarily occupied Enerhodar in Zaporizhzhia Oblast into a military-logistical base. Thus, the "Non-standard Equipment and Pipelines Plant" is being used by invaders for repairing military equipment, while the "Special Constructions Plant" and "Domobud Construction Complex" have been turned into storage facilities for military equipment, weapons, and ammunition.
The Air Force of the Territorial Defense Forces carried out fifteen strikes over areas where enemy personnel and military equipment are concentrated during the past day, two of which were against anti-aircraft missile systems.
Our defenders destroyed five enemy reconnaissance drones.
Units of rocket forces and artillery inflicted damage on one command post, one artillery unit in a firing position, two ammunition depots, and two radio-electronic warfare stations over the course of the day.
Support our Armed Forces! We will win together!
Glory to Ukraine!
