1. The Ukrainian army has built the front line. This is an important operational achievement. Russian convoys lost the opportunity to advance in any chosen direction. This does not mean that the defense is stabilized, it means that Ukraine has restored organized resistance. Since the Ukrainian leadership did not mobilize the operative reserve and TRO before the war, every day of resistance gives us the opportunity to mobilize forces now. We are getting stronger.

2. The situation near Kiev remains tense. The enemy continues to slowly sell our defense under Irpen, Bucha and Makarov, there are heavy battles. Russian troops are trying to take control of the Zhytomyr highway and capture Kiev from the west in order to block logistics and supply of supplies.

Missile and air strikes are launched in various cities in the Zhytomyr region of the Russian Federation. According to the Chechen scenario, the Russian army simply demolishes any suspicious houses with tanks and artillery, without checking whether there are tenants there or not. However, in response to terror, the Russians suffer huge losses and their groups are gradually losing their combat ability.

3. Russia continues actions in various directions in order to maintain the strategic initiative and not allow the Ukrainian command to concentrate reserves. The accumulation of Ukrainian troops is also carried out by air and missile terror, and the destruction of major cities. The opponent is trying to secure in the south direction.

4. Scenery near Kharkiv. The enemy does not conduct active ground warfare, because all their attacks are fought back with woes. But the enemy is trying to control the actions of Kharkov's defenders with constant rockets, artillery and air strikes. In Kharkov, the Russians are demonstratingly destroying residential areas, dozens of attacks were inflicted on high-rise buildings, the life support system of the city.

5. Russian troops are regrouping near Balakleia. They threaten to reach Kharkov from the east. But the main course of action of this group is raisins. Raisins are attacked by Russian air and artillery. The attempt of the Russians to seize the city is reflected.

6. Zaporizhzhya region. Russian troops are concentrating efforts on consolidating in the captured Energodar and the Zaoprozh NPP. Another Russian group threatens Gulyay-Polya and hangs over the southern flank of the JFO forces. The Russians are building a railway and trying to consolidate in the Kherson and Zaporizhzhya regions.

7. It is obvious that the activity of two Russian groups in Balakley and Pology poses threats in different directions, but the most likely direction of their strikes will be an attempt to narrow the supply corridor in the Donbass with blows to Raisins from the north and to Gu lay-field from the south, and force Ukrainian troops to leave Donbass.

8. Mariupol - a key city of southern Donbass, heroically battles in the surroundings under fire from Russian air and artillery. Today in Mariupol, an 18-month-old baby died from a direct hit of a Russian shell. The Russians are trying to knock out our garrison and force us to surrender. Russia is trying to create a scenario of the second Ilovaisk in Mariupol, but on a larger scale.

9. They were worried. Ukrainian troops heroically hold Volnovakh. The Russian command continues attacks to seize the city, in order to push our troops out of the southern Donbass and further move our positions away from Mariupol. Yesterday, in the battle of Volnovakha, our soldiers destroyed a combatant of the Russian battalion "Sparta".

10. Nikolaev Oblast. Ukrainian troops repelled Russians from Nikolaev and Voznesensk. However, the opponent continues to pose a threat in these directions, and intends to capture our main ports and the South Ukrainian NPP. The situation is getting tense.

11. Chernihiv. The heroic defense of the city continues, our troops firmly hold their positions. The Russians are trying to suppress our forces with constant air terror.

12. Sumy, Okhtyrka. The heroic defense of these cities continues. Russian air terrorists destroyed the life support system of cities in order to force residents to leave their land.

13. Popular uprising in all occupied territories is of invaluable importance. The united resistance of the people of Ukraine disrupts all Putin's plans to seize the country and compensates for the miscalculations committed in the organization of our defense, especially evident in the south. Therefore, any forms of resistance, apparent or indirect, from every citizen, any assistance with information, participation in protests, sabotage against the occupiers is of great importance.

Conclusions :
1. Ukraine withstood the first blow of the Russian army. The operational pause in the actions of the Russian troops is associated with large losses and regrouping to tighten the rear.

2. The Russian army has changed its strategy of actions. After the failure of attempts to surround Kiev and Kharkov, the Russian command focused its main efforts on the fight on communications and the separation from Ukraine Pricheronomorya and Donbass.

3. After a series of defeats in ground battles, the Russian command began to use outright terrorist tactics, firing up residential neighborhoods, killing civilians who allegedly set out to "denazify".

4. You can stop the advancement of Russian columns and disrupt their maneuver only by constant pressure on their communication. Only the use of active defensive tactics in various directions will force the enemy to leave and liberate our land. An operational break is also necessary for the enemy to consolidate and recover losses, it is also quite vulnerable.

5. Ukraine continues to surpass the Russian army in number, motivation, fighting spirit, however the enemy has gained an advantage in mobility, including armored technology and artillery, in air and missile weapons. The key factor that predetermined Ukrainian victory is the cohesion of the Ukrainian people in the struggle. However, winning the war requires mobilization, armament and training. And this is the time that every day of resistance we achieve at a high price. Work for victory is going on every second, all Ukrainians are united in only one thing - to win. And we will come out on top.
