Quote: "We withstood the first and most difficult wave of attacks by the Russians. The myth of Putin's most modern and powerful army in the world was destroyed and burned on the roads of Kyiv and Kharkiv and the Chernihiv and Mykolaiv regions.

Russian terrorist forces have failed to achieve strategic success in any direction. The Ukrainian troops are mounting a decent resistance, and the day of our victory over the Russian chimaera is becoming closer every day.

But the enemy is still dangerous and is preparing a second wave of large-scale attacks, which we must be able to face with as much preparedness and unity as possible."

Details: The cities of Kyiv, Kharkiv, Mariupol, Mykolaiv, Chernihiv and Odessa remain strategically important. The aggressor’s plan is to take over key cities, to bleed the Ukrainian Armed Forces and to create a situation of humanitarian catastrophe for the civilian population.

The command of the Russian occupying forces is shifting its focus to the South, trying to deprive Ukraine of access to the Black and Azov Seas. This, in their opinion, will create the conditions for the economic suppression of the Ukrainian resistance.

The aggressor has not given up hope of capturing Kyiv and is marshalling resources for the encirclement of the Dnipro.

At the same time, on the Ukrainian side, forces are regrouping, reserves are being replenished and the Ukrainian army is being supplied with plenty of the latest weapons. The plane and helicopter crashes on 5 March confirm this, Danilov emphasised.

Quote: "We have taken the most difficult step towards victory, but there is still a lot of work to be done to destroy the aggressors and return all territories to Ukrainian hands!

Funerals for Russian soldiers and tonnes of charred Russian military iron are a reminder for the next wave of aggressors: don’t come here, or we’ll kill you! And we will kill so much that the intoxicated Russian society will wake up, if not from guilt, then from pain. We now reach out to you. Never fight against the Ukrainians: sooner or later, we will come to you to repay all the debts you have accumulated, and the bill has been running for centuries.

Glory to Ukraine! Death to her enemies!".
