Glory to Ukraine! The four hundred and seventieth day of Russia's large-scale military aggression against Ukraine has begun.
The Russian Federation continues its occupation war, disregarding losses. To achieve its goals, it employs a strategy of terror.
During the past day, Russian occupiers launched another missile and aviation strike on Ukraine, using eight missiles, including four ground-based cruise missiles "Iskander," and 35 Iranian Shahed attack drones against military targets and critical infrastructure.
Anti-aircraft defense forces destroyed two cruise missiles and twenty Shahed attack drones.
In addition, the enemy carried out ninety-two aviation strikes and forty-five artillery attacks with multiple rocket launchers on our positions and populated areas. Unfortunately, there are casualties among civilians, private homes have been destroyed or damaged.
The likelihood of missile and aviation strikes across Ukraine remains very high.
The enemy continues to focus its main efforts on attempts at full occupation of the Luhansk and Donetsk regions; fierce battles are ongoing. During the past day, thirty-five combat engagements took place in the specified sector of the front.

Due to the lack of legal norms regarding final terms for military service through mobilization in the Russian army, a lack of significant achievements on the battlefield, and the spread of panic moods about future prospects among Russian conscripts, cases of non-compliance with orders, sabotage, unauthorized contacts, as well as desertion have become more frequent. To address these issues, the Chief of General Staff of the RF Armed Forces has taken a decision to order commanders of units and military units to identify such individuals and dispatch them to storm battalions for further use in so-called "meat storms."
The Air Force of the Defense Forces carried out sixteen strikes against areas of concentration of personnel and two — against enemy air defense missile complexes during the past day.
Our defenders also destroyed four enemy reconnaissance drones of various types.
Subunits of rocket troops and artillery inflicted damage on two command points, five areas of concentration of live forces, weapons and military equipment, one artillery subunit in a firing position as well as another four important targets of the enemy during the day.
Overall, Ukrainian warriors liquidated 980 Russian occupiers. In addition, the enemy lost seventeen tanks, twenty-four combat armored vehicles, nineteen artillery systems, one MLRS, thirty-seven operational-tactical level drones, seven missiles, thirty-three cars and two units of special equipment.
Support the Armed Forces of Ukraine! Together we will win!
Glory to Ukraine!
