Former Deputy Defense Minister Vitaly Deynega called for "leaving these cities while it is possible." In his opinion and that of other military personnel, an attempt to hold Pokrovsk at all costs risks a repeat of the Bakhmut and Avdiivka scenarios, which could lead to a chaotic and bloody retreat.

The Prime Minister is also surprised that this "false narrative" has received support from the United States, which has granted Hungary an exemption from sanctions on Russian oil. He noted that Serbia does not have a similar exemption and is already facing restrictions.

An increase in infectious diseases in the event of a possible invasion and a shortage of medicines, blood and dressings are also expected. The Bundeswehr also believes that it is necessary to prepare for targeted enemy attacks on hospitals and doctors.

The political establishment in Norway has been stung by suggestions from Denmark and other European partners that the country, which belongs to Nato but not the EU, has been “war profiteering” from the Russian invasion of Ukraine by selling large volumes of oil and gas to its allies.

Today we remember all your brothers and sisters who gave their lives in the fight for Ukraine. Eternal memory to the heroes-paratroopers.

You are a symbol of the will, strength and honor of the Ukrainian army. You are an example of the struggle for the freedom and independence of Ukraine.
