Details: Ihnat was asked what Ukrainians should expect on New Year's Eve. The military official replied that safety is the first priority, even on holidays.
Quote: "Ukrainians should get ready for the New Year, but keep in mind that their own safety is above all. We must understand that the enemy will not make any concessions, even to civilians.
You can see them hitting the centre of a city with a population of one and a half million using anti-aircraft missiles (Ihnat means Kharkiv – Ukrainska Pravda). They also have longer-range missiles. We saw a large-scale attack (on Ukraine) on 29 December.
Therefore, first and foremost, (Ukrainians should) take care of themselves and respond to air-raid warnings. No fireworks, you understand. Nowadays, fireworks are wrong from any point of view.
Should we expect it or not? The enemy attacks us basically every day, both with Shaheds and missiles. So, take care of yourselves, and the Air Force and Defence Forces will do everything to crush these b*****ds as much as possible."
