Russian occupying forces have resorted to the tactic of open terror: they execute targeted attacks on Ukraine’s civilian population and critical civilian infrastructures.

According to Danilov: "It is the tenth day of the heroic National Resistance! On all fronts, the entire security and defence sector is fending off Russia’s occupying forces.

Russian forces have resorted to open tactics of terror, executing bloody "precision strikes" on civilians and critical infrastructures at Putin’s behest. The goal is to intimidate us, sow panic among us, and to break our will to resist.

The cruel and insidious enemy violates agreements, blocks the opening of "green corridors," and does not allow humanitarian aid to be delivered. At the same time, they try to simulate the "warm welcome" received by the occupiers from local residents. But these cheap tricks of Russian propaganda have failed."

Details: Danilov also stressed that the key cities deterring the Russian troops in the south and east of the country –Kharkiv and Mariupol– continue to hold.

Ukraine’s Territorial Defence Forces are only growing stronger, the army is being replenished from the reserve of highly motivated and very angry Ukrainians, Ukraine’s allies are sending aid, and the Ukrainian population trusts and supports their president.

Danilov: "And that is why our course remains the same: the Russian military ship is going to hell [here Danilov evokes the infamous chant Russkiy korabl idi na**y] and its speed is about to rapidly increase."
