Russian forces unleashed a massive mass last night missile attack against the city of Mykolaiv, in southern Ukraine: at least 10 missiles, probably launched from an S-300 surface-to-air system, hit various parts of the city. The Associated Press news agency writes that it was also hit a shipyard in the estuary of the Bug River.
Three civilians were killed and 12 were wounded during the bombing of Russian forces in the Ukrainian region of Donetsk (east) in the last 24 hours: the head of the regional military administration, Pavlo Kyrylenko, made it known on Telegram, according to Ukrinform. Since the start of the Russian invasion, 623 civilians have been killed and 1,598 injured in the Donetsk region.
Russia has started a war and does not want to end it, while Ukraine defends its land: the Ukrainian president writes on Facebook Volodymyr Zelensky, according to Ukrinform. “This is a war in Ukraine that Russia has started, that Russia continues and that Russia does not want to end. Ukraine is defending its land, its sovereignty, its territory. Ukraine is fighting for peace.” , Zelensky wrote, adding that it is a cruel paradox of the 21st century, and it is a reality for Ukrainians.
Approximately 38,300 Russian soldiers were killed in Ukraine since the beginning of the invasion, according to the Kiev army. In its update on the losses suffered by Moscow so far, the Ukrainian army indicates that 220 fighters, 188 helicopters and 688 drones have also been shot down. In addition, the Kiev forces claim to have destroyed 1,684 Russian tanks, 846 artillery systems, 3,879 armored personnel carriers, 15 ships and 166 cruise missiles.
Russian intelligence agents were tasked with determining and plotting the routes used to transfer Western weapons to Ukraine: Ukrainian military intelligence reports. Russian military attachés throughout the European Union have been tasked not only with determining the routes and itineraries of shipments, but also the quantities of arms consignments that allied countries deliver to Kiev. For this reason, the intelligence continues, the Russians have received the order through encrypted communication channels to intensify the recruitment of police officers and civilians involved in these expeditions in the EU. Furthermore, in the regions bordering Ukraine, Russian spies are trying to involve representatives of local communities and pro-Russian activists. “When Europeans receive such cooperation proposals from the Russians, they immediately turn to the police and security agencies,” reads a report.
At least 50,000 Russian soldiers have been killed or injured since the invasion of Ukraine began: Moscow forces have thus lost more than 30% of their effectiveness in field combat. Admiral Tony Radakin, UK Chief of Defense Staff, said today on BBC One’s Sunday Morning program. For this reason, he continued, the Ukrainian army is “absolutely” convinced of winning the war: Kiev sees “a Russia in trouble, a Russia that, according to our estimates, has lost more than 30% of its ground combat effectiveness. “.
Poland has welcomed 4.81 million refugees from Ukraine since the beginning of the Russian invasion: this was reported by Radio Poland, according to Ukrinform, which cites a report by the Polish Border Guard agency. “Since February 24, a total of 4.81 million people have entered Poland from Ukraine,” the agency wrote in a tweet. On Friday alone, about 25,100 refugees from Ukraine arrived in the country, compared to 24,800 the previous day. Also since February 24, 2.88 million people have left Poland to go to Ukraine, while about 23,300 people entered Ukraine from Poland on Friday.
