Today, Ukraine is commemorating the first anniversary of the first successful battles of the full-scale war - the battles in the north of the country that resulted in the enemy's retreat. On March 21 of last year, the battle for Moshchun, a small village in the Kyiv region, ended, and it was the first major victory for Ukraine in this war. Other such victories followed, such as the battle for Gostomel, the battle for Irpin, fighting in the Chernihiv and Sumy regions, the battle for Zmiiny, a fierce confrontation in the south of Ukraine, and a unique defense operation that brought freedom back to the Kharkiv region. We will achieve the same result in other active actions, such as the heroic battle for Donbas, which will ultimately be won by Ukraine, and the subsequent confrontation in the south, which will restore normal life in the Azov region. Glory to all those who are fighting for Ukraine near Bakhmut, near Avdiivka, near Vuhledar and in all other hot spots of the front line! Glory to our heroes!
Russian forces launched four missiles towards the city of Odesa, with the X-59 model being the preliminary type. Air defense forces were able to shoot down two of the missiles, but unfortunately, the other two missiles struck the city. A three-story building located on the grounds of a monastery was damaged, and three people were reported to have been injured.

Over the course of the day, the Defense Forces' aviation conducted 5 strikes on areas where the invaders were concentrated, and missile and artillery units were hit, including an ammunition depot, two anti-aircraft missile systems, a radar station, and other important enemy targets. A very good result!
As of now, heavy fighting continues in Bakhmut without pause. The situation is very dangerous and the enemy is continuing to build up their forces. Each day is becoming more difficult than the last. In Kremennaya, the enemy has increased their attacks towards Torske and Serebryanske forestry, but so far they have not been successful. In Avdiivka, the situation is difficult in the area of Kamianka, Nevelske, Severne, and Pervomaiske. Fighting continues!
