TASR was informed about this by the spokesman of the Armed Forces of the Slovak Republic Štefan Zemanovič, stating that the Russian Ministry of Defense announced on Saturday (February 26) the expansion of its own operations on the territory of Ukraine “in all directions”. According to Zemanovich, Russian troops continued to be detained near the Ukrainian cities of Chernigov, Sumy and Kharkov on Saturday. “The adversary made almost no territorial gains here and, on the contrary, suffered greater losses“he said.

According to the Armed Forces of the Slovak Republic, the largest gains of the Russian Armed Forces were made in the south of Ukraine from Kherson to Mykolaiv and from Melitopol to Mariupol. “Some members of the armed forces of the Russian Federation have surrendered and expanded the numbers of Russian prisoners from previous days. The raids of Russian troops into the northeastern part of Kiev were also eliminated“said a spokesman for the Armed Forces of the Slovak Republic.

In Saturday, the elimination of reconnaissance-diverse groups or persons working for the benefit of the Russian armed forces by the security forces took place in cooperation with the city’s inhabitants. “From the northwest, several days of fighting continued near the airport Hostomeľ and other Ukrainian troops were relocated to this direction with the intention of strengthening the defense. The Russian military’s efforts to move in this direction have been eliminated“Zemanovich stated.

The advance of Russian troops to the cities of Berdyansk and Melitopol was recorded. In many cities in Ukraine, several ballistic and flat-track missiles have been recorded during the past day and night. According to the Armed Forces of the Slovak Republic, their primary goal was military objectives or critical infrastructure.

“As in recent days, several civilian targets such as apartment buildings, private homes, medical facilities, an orphanage and school facilities were hit in these attacks.“the spokesman said, adding that children are also dying in the war. The Slovak Armed Forces are referring to Ukrainian sources, according to which five children were killed and 33 others were injured on February 26.
