The sixty-third day of the heroic opposition of the Ukrainian people to the Russian military invasion continues.
The Russian Federation does not stop full-scale armed aggression against Ukraine.
The enemy continues offensive operations in the Eastern Operational Zone to establish full control over the territory of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions and maintain a land corridor between these territories and the occupied Crimea.
In the Volyn, Polissya and Seversky directions, the situation did not change significantly, no signs of the formation of offensive groups by the enemy were found.
In Slobozhanshchyna, the enemy carried out systematic artillery shelling, including multiple rocket launchers, in the cities of Kharkiv and Dergachi and in settlement of Prudyanka.
In the direction of Izyum - Barvinkove, occupiers attempted an offensive in the area of ââNova Dmytrivka. They were unsuccessful, lost, and left.
In the Donetsk and Tavriya directions, the enemy continues to shell the positions of our troops along the line of contact with mortars and artillery.
The enemy made an unsuccessful attempt to break through the defenses of our troops in the Kurakhovo area.
In the South Bug area, units of the occupying forces, under cover of artillery fire, continue to improve the engineering equipment of the positions, replenish stocks of material and technical means, ammunition and fuel, and conduct air reconnaissance.
The Russian occupiers tried to improve the tactical position of their troops in the direction of Zaporizhzhia. They have no success; they left with losses.
In the temporarily occupied territory of the Kharkiv region, near the village of Levkivka, Izium district, the enemy organized a collection point for damaged equipment, where military equipment is being repaired and restored. Russian invaders continue to carry out so-called "filtration measures" in some settlements temporarily out of control of the Ukrainian authorities.
In the temporarily occupied territory of the Zaporizhia region, the occupiers are inspecting the houses of local residents in order to identify the places of residence of representatives of the security forces of Ukraine. Carrying out a census of the local population, movement in the temporarily occupied territory without identity documents is prohibited.
In the temporarily occupied territory of the Kherson region, the occupiers are preparing for a so-called "referendum", bulletins are being printed, and personal data of local citizens of Ukraine are being clarified. At the same time, Russian invaders continued to prevent civilians from leaving the occupied territory.
Due to numerous provocations from Russia in the Transnistrian region of the Republic of Moldova, a "red" level of terrorist threat has been introduced. The security forces personnel were transferred to the "barracks state", the control at the checkpoints was strengthened, and the preparations for the May 9 holiday parade were canceled.
The enemy is demoralized. Personnel who are taken to replenish losses from the occupied territories of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts will have their personal documents confiscated, which will not allow them to be identified in their death. There have been more and more cases of enemy soldiers looking for new ways to avoid participating in hostilities. Personnel resort to desertion, captivity, and self-mutilation.
Let's win together!
Glory to Ukraine!
