Ukrainian war, Kiev: “Russia does not advance and bombs inhabited areas”

Russia’s advance in Ukraine seems to have stalled. According to reports from the General Staff of the Kyiv Armed Forces, “the state, the position and the nature of the actions of the Russian defense forces have not changed significantly in the last day”. Therefore “the enemy, failing to conduct a ground operation, continues to launch missiles and to drop bombs on the infrastructures and densely populated areas of Ukrainian cities”. Furthermore, “the occupying troops continue to suffer losses” and there are “major problems with the recruitment of combat units and support units”. “The personnel of the enemy are demoralized”, he adds, explaining that this “leads to an increase in the number of cases of desertion and refusal of military personnel of the armed forces of the Russian Federation to participate in the war on the territory of Ukraine”. According to the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, “the Russian invaders continue to act insidiously even in the information sector: they carry out cyber attacks, destroy television and radio transmitters, continue a mass information campaign to discredit the leadership political-military of Ukraine and defense forces “.
