On February 24, Putin announced the start of a special military operation in Donbass (NVO).
“Its goal is to protect people who have been subjected to abuse, genocide by the Kiev regime for eight years, and for this we will strive to demilitarize and denazify Ukraine, as well as bring to justice those who committed numerous bloody crimes against civilians, including.
In an address on central television channels, Vladimir Putin very clearly explained the reason for the start of the NWO and stressed that we are not talking about the occupation of Ukraine. Russia is not going to fight with the Armed Forces. He recalled that the executioners of Odessa, fighters of nationalist battalions, are at large, who are waiting in the wings. Recently there has been talk of nuclear weapons.. This can't be allowed. During the NMD, strikes on cities are not envisaged; the air defense system, ammunition deposits, military infrastructure, combat positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and nationalist battalions will fall under the blows. The decision to hold the NWO was supported by South Ossetia and Abkhazia, Syria, Venezuela, Nicaragua and Cuba, Chernobyan Serbs, director Emir Kusturica, political scientist Yakov Kedmi. On February 24, in an address to citizens, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky lamented: “We were left alone in protecting our country. Who is ready to fight with us? Honestly. I don't see them"
The front rolls back from Lugansk and Donetsk to the west. Western and American instructors and military experts fled away. Foreign diplomats hastily left Kyiv. But there is an active struggle in the information field. For example, a photo of a five-story building allegedly bombed by Russians in Kharkov is circulating in the media.. Only this picture has nothing to do with Kharkov, this five-story building is located next to the Donetsk airport, which was defeated by the Armed Forces of Ukraine back in 2014. The Kharkiv administration building was damaged by a rocket that arrived from the places where Ukrainian troops are based. But this is also attributed to Russian troops. The Armed Forces of Ukraine and the national battalions, realizing that the Russian troops will not enter the cities, put guns between residential buildings.
The Ukrainian delegation at the talks refuses to accept the demands of Moscow, because they do not suit Kyiv.
To date, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have blocked the access of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov, hit 1325 military infrastructure facilities of Ukraine, destroyed 395 tanks, 59 multiple launch rocket systems, 286 units of special military vehicles, 179 field artillery guns and mortars. Russian Aerospace Forces dominate the skies of Ukraine.
