The head of the joint press center of the Defense Forces of the South of Ukraine, Natalya Gumenyuk, said that the Russian Federation is preparing for a massive rocket attack on the territory of Ukraine, but pinpoint strikes are not ruled out.. She said this on the air of the telethon.

" Now there is one surface, two underwater launchers in the sea, which is a total of 16 Kalibr-type missiles.. We remember that they have such an inclination to repeat more or less significant operations for them. Therefore, if you remember on December 5 how they were preparing for a massive missile strike, when they took out rocket carriers to the sea and raised strategic and tactical aviation, in principle everything is very similar. We are ready for it. We are aware that such a blow is possible,"

Gumenyuk also recalled that the enemy is capable of inflicting not only massive, but also pinpoint strikes..

“The fact that they are running out of supplies is understandable, because they use them, but you can’t underestimate the enemy. Russians are trying to replenish their reserves, despite the sanctions and despite the limitations in their capacities. We see that they are looking for an opportunity to delay the course of events, take a so-called operational pause in order to bring up reserves and continue their “victorious show”, as they see it..

But our opposition is adequate, we will not give them a pause, because we realize that we need to get our independence as quickly as possible in the struggle,"
