Evgeniy Khmara:
We will shut down Russia’s war machine — destroying its infrastructure, fleet, logistics, fuel and energy facilities, and enterprises working to wage war against Ukraine.
Our operation in Novorossiysk was unique. The combined strike involved missiles, strike drones, and naval drones. Russia proved powerless against the synchronized use of Ukrainian strike capabilities.
This is the result of joint efforts and growing synergy across the Defense Forces.
I thank our warriors for their precision. I thank Ukrainian weapons manufacturers for solutions that give Ukraine greater ability to strike the enemy deep behind the front lines.
Strengthening deep strikes against Russia is one of our key priorities. Together with @CinC_AFU
Mykhailo Drapatyi, the General Staff, @usf_army, @ServiceSsu, other components of the Defense Forces, and weapons manufacturers, we will continue to increase this pressure.Today, at a meeting chaired by @ZelenskyyUa, we identified further joint steps. Ukrainian operations will become increasingly difficult to counter. Ukrainian weapons will become more widespread. Our strikes will become more precise. Russia will burn.
We are working to fulfill the President’s task — to force Russia into a just peace.
Glory to Ukraine!
