The Russians are actively attacking the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in several directions in the Donbas, suffering heavy losses. And Russia continues to terrorize Ukrainians with missile strikes. This was announced by President Volodymyr Zelensky in his evening video message on the 109th day of the liberation war of the Ukrainian people..

“The key tactical goal of the invaders has not changed. They are pressing in Severodonetsk, where fierce battles continue - literally for every meter. And they also press in the direction of Lisichansk, Bakhmut, Slavyansk, etc.. The Russian army is trying to bring reserve forces to the Donbass. But what reserves can they have now? It looks like they will try to throw into battle poorly trained conscripts and those who were gathered along the path of covert mobilization. And this means only one thing: in June, Russia can cross the border with 40,000 of its lost soldiers,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy said..

The President also spoke about the consequences of a missile attack on the city of Chertkiv in the Ternopil region last night, which injured 22 people, including a child..

“After a missile attack on the Ternopil region, ten people are still in hospitals. There was not a single tactical or strategic sense in this strike, as in the vast majority of other Russian strikes.. This is terror, just terror - Among the victims - a girl, she is 12 years old, she is from Kharkov. She went to the Ternopil region to escape from the Russian army.

And it is precisely such facts that will now determine the perception of Russia in the world.. Not Peter I or Leo Tolstoy, but children wounded and killed by Russian strikes..
