Quote from Zelenskyy: "This week we have good news from Kharkiv Oblast. All of you have most likely seen reports about the recent activities of Ukrainian defenders. And I think every [Ukrainian] citizen feels proud of our warriors. It is a well-deserved pride, a righteous feeling.
This is not the time to reveal which towns and villages [have been liberated]. But it's a good moment to thank the 25th Airborne Brigade, the 92nd Separate Mechanised Brigade and the 80th Airborne Assault Brigade for the bravery and heroism they have displayed in the course of carrying out their combat missions.
Today, I am grateful as well to the 406th Separate Artillery Brigade for successfully striking areas where the occupiers are concentrated in the south of our country, and to the 60th Separate Infantry Brigade for ensuring that we continue to consistently advance our positions."
