⚔️ Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Colonel-General Oleksandr Syrskyi:

Together with the Minister of Defense of Ukraine Rustem Umyerov, they made a working trip to the military units and units that maintain the defense in the Avdiyiv and Kupyan areas.

The operational environment is extremely complex and stressful. The Russian occupiers continue to increase their efforts and have a numerical advantage in personnel. They do not count on losses and continue to use the tactics of "meat assaults". For example, units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine repelled 29 attacks by Russian occupiers in the Avdiyiv district
alone. In addition, the enemy actively uses aviation, inflicts damage with guided aerial bombs, conducts dense mortar and artillery fire on our positions.

We are doing everything possible to prevent the enemy from advancing deep into our territory and to hold the occupied positions. Despite the difficult situation, the Defense Forces of Ukraine inflict significant losses on the enemy.
