The risk of the enemy breaching the defenses of the Ukrainian forces in the Zaporizhzhia sector is low, as the troops are well-prepared. However, the enemy should not be underestimated, as the occupants have experience in combat operations, according to Oleksiy Dmytrashkivsky, spokesman for the Joint Press Center of the Tauride Defense Forces. Reports have recently surfaced that the Wagnerites are receiving additional ammunition, which could lead to more active operations in the area in the near future.
❗️The A-50U drone in Machulishchi was attacked by two drones, Belarussian Gayun.

The National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine (NSDC) has explained why Ukrainians were not warned about a full-scale war. According to NSDC Secretary Oleksiy Danilov, there were several dates mentioned for the start of the war, making it impossible to predict when the enemy would launch an offensive and in which directions. On February 23, Ukraine declared a state of emergency, but this was not a direct warning of Russia's plans to launch a full-scale war. The war began when Russia invaded the Ukrainian Crimean peninsula on February 24, 2022.
