Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine Hanna Malyar informed about this in Telegram.

"The enemy is trying to use not only the Wagnerites, but also professional units of paratroopers. Excessively high losses of personnel do not stop the enemy. Decisions are made emotionally.

Our defenders have to stop the advance of the enemy under challenging conditions. But each of our military decisions and each step is considered. "The command of the operational and strategic group of troops "Khortytsia" works in the combat zone and is in full control of the operational situation on the spot," the message says.

The response to the current situation is carried out competently, considering all circumstances, tasks, and the principle of military expediency.
