Ukrainian defenders inflict losses on the enemy in all directions where active hostilities continue.

russian occupiers, in order to somehow justify their destruction of civilian objects on the territory of Ukraine, continue to leak information about the location of military units in schools, churches and hospitals.

The General Staff urges people to trust information only from verified sources and not to spread russian fakes and disinformation.
