The occupiers are keeping two carriers of high-precision weapons in readiness for launching missile strikes on objects on the territory of Ukraine.

The enemy's personnel is demoralized, which is due to the constant postponement of their rotation dates. The invaders are afraid of the active resistance of the local population, which is increasing in particular in the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia oblasts. All this leads to an increase in the refusal of the occupiers to participate in hostilities on the territory of Ukraine.

We believe in the Armed Forces of Ukraine!

Glory to Ukraine!
