Ukrainian Perspective: Invasion of Ukraine: June 30, 2024
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Worth noting, korrespondent.net has compiled its Invasion of Ukraine series into separate months, beginning May 9th, 2023. Linked in the title.

[Korrespondent] 22:18 In Kiev, in the Obolonsky district, five people were injured as a result of today’s attack - they turned to doctors with an acute stress reaction, one person was hospitalized, the prosecutor’s office reported. The head of the KGVA, Sergei Popko, noted that today’s missile attack on the capital differs from recent air attacks. In particular, the enemy did not strike in the dark, nor with combined or massive shelling. According to Popko, Russia is testing new tactics - looking for the exact time, methods and means to hit Kyiv, since the capital of Ukraine "has always been and will be one of the highest priority targets" for the Russians.

20:07 Russia launched a missile strike on Kiev - as a result of falling debris in the Obolonsky district, a multi-story residential building was damaged, information about the victims is being clarified, KGVA reported.

19:16 The Russians hit the center of Kharkov with a KAB, hitting the Nova Poshta terminal, said Oleg Sinegubov, head of the OBA. One person was killed and nine were injured, including an eight-month-old child.

18:33 On Monday, July 1, measures to limit electricity consumption will be applied throughout the day, Ukrenergo reported.

18:19 Russia is forcibly holding more than 14,000 Ukrainian civilians, Ombudsman Dmitry Lubinets said. "We cannot change them, we have no direct additional influence on the Russian Federation. We do not even have a legal basis on which we can conduct this process," he noted. However, according to the Human Rights Commissioner, Ukraine is currently working on the return of almost 20,000 children and "tens of thousands" of Ukrainians who are considered missing.

17:41 Zelensky in an interview with The Philadelphia Inquirer named the conditions under which Ukraine is ready to end the war. According to him, it is necessary "to prevent the destruction of Ukraine" and also "to ensure that aggression cannot be repeated," which will require Ukraine's admission to the EU and NATO. "If we do not have this, I believe there are great risks for us that this enemy will return... We need collective defense of Ukraine," the president emphasized.

Zelensky also acknowledged that Ukraine and the West have different understandings of victory in this war. Thus, the West wants to preserve Ukraine, but does not want the collapse of Russia or the replacement of Putin in the Kremlin, since then "things could get worse." Ukraine, according to Zelensky, needs "satisfaction."

"For us, the final victory... is a moment of satisfaction. Do you understand? These are different things. If for the West the main victory is not to allow Ukraine to be occupied, but everyone is afraid that Russia will fall apart. I hear these messages. Everyone is afraid of what will happen to Russia without Putin, everyone is afraid whether it can remain as it is and not become even worse, and so on," the president explained. At the same time, he emphasized that "satisfaction is important, justice is needed," because Ukraine "needs to remain a united nation" even after the war.

17:20 At dawn, the Russian army launched an air strike with ten guided bombs on populated areas of the Kherson and Berislav districts, the National Police reported. In Prydniprovsk, six multi-story buildings and a kindergarten were damaged, five people were injured. In addition, in the morning, the Russians attacked Berislav from a drone, one person was killed.

16:58 The potential negotiations with Russia could use a model of mediation by countries, as in the course of the grain corridor agreements, Zelensky said in an interview with The Philadelphia Inquirer columnist Trudy Rubin. He recalled that at that time Ukraine negotiated not with Russia, but with the UN and Turkey, which, in turn, took responsibility in a trilateral agreement with Kiev, and then signed an agreement with Moscow. According to the president, a similar model could be used in matters of territorial integrity, energy, free navigation, and mediators could be not only the United States and European countries, but also countries from different continents, including Asia, the Pacific region, Africa and Latin America.

Zelensky also said that in the hottest sectors of the front, in particular in the Kharkov and Pokrovsky directions, the ratio of losses is six Russians to one Ukrainian.

In addition, the head of state admitted that the United States does not currently support inviting Ukraine to NATO. In his opinion, this is being done so as not to irritate Putin. “We understand that the White House is not ready to give us an invitation. They talk about it openly. President Biden talks about it. And Trump says that if it weren’t for NATO, the war might not have started. You and I hear both opinions of the two parties. And this suggests that everyone does not see Ukraine in NATO today,” Zelensky added.

11:17 Electricity shortages will continue in Ukraine until 2026, according to the memorandum that Ukraine signed with the IMF. The average energy deficit in 2024 is expected to be approximately 10%, which will gradually decrease throughout 2025 and early 2026. “An increase in tariffs for the population by an average of 60% from June 1 should also stimulate changes in consumption patterns and provide additional income to energy companies,” the memorandum says.

10:39 The number of victims as a result of yesterday's Russian attack on Volnyansk, Zaporozhye region, increased to 36, seven people died, the National Police reported. Nine children were among the victims.

09:16 In the Donetsk region over the past 24 hours, eight people were killed as a result of Russian shelling: three in Zarechny, one each in Slavyansk, New York, Kurakhovka, Konstantinovka, Pivnichny. Another 14 people in the region were injured during the day, said the head of the OVA, Vadim Filashkin.

09:12 In the Kherson region, over the past day, as a result of Russian shelling, one person was killed and five were injured, reported the head of the OVA, Oleksandr Prokudin. Two multi-story buildings and 11 private houses were damaged.

09:07 The Russian Ministry of Defense stated that air defense forces allegedly destroyed 36 drones overnight over the territory of the Kursk, Lipetsk, Voronezh, Bryansk, Oryol and Belgorod regions.

08:56 The number of victims as a result of yesterday's Russian strike on Volnyansk in Zaporizhia Oblast has risen to 31, including eight children. Seven people died, including three children, said the head of the OVA Ivan Fedorov. Today, a day of mourning has been declared in Zaporizhia Oblast.

08:42 On the afternoon of June 29, the Russians hit Dergachi in the Kharkov region with KABs, three people were injured, said the head of the OVA Oleg Sinegubov. Another person was wounded as a result of artillery shelling of Kupyansk-Uzlovoy.

07:58 The General Staff announced the estimated losses of the Russian Federation as of the morning of June 30:

June 29
22:07 The OSCE Parliamentary Assembly adopted a resolution recognizing Russia’s actions as genocide of the Ukrainian people and the need for decolonization of the Russian Federation, said member of the parliamentary delegation Pavel Frolov. The document, in particular, calls on the 53 OSCE participating countries to make efforts to de-occupy Crimea and all occupied territories of Ukraine by supporting the Peace Formula and the Crimean Platform. In addition, the OSCE PA calls for the creation of a special tribunal to hold the Russian Federation accountable for crimes committed during the aggressive war against Ukraine.

[Regnum] Turkish sappers neutralized a Ukrainian drifting mine discovered in the Black Sea off the coast of the country, which is why the beach was closed. A newspaper reported this on June 30.

According to the publication, the object was noticed on the evening of June 29, 60 meters from the coast near the city of Eregli, at a depth of five meters. In connection with this, the entrance to the beaches was temporarily closed to the population.

“Police and coastguard arrived at the scene. As a result of the inspection, it was established that the suspicious object was a mine of Ukrainian origin,” the report says.

It is noted that the sappers detonated the mine in a controlled manner. The entrance to the beach was opened only in the afternoon of June 30.

As Regnum reported, on June 26, official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova announced Kiev’s deliberate mining of the Black Sea. The diplomat recalled that at the beginning of a special military operation in 2022, Ukraine mined its Black Sea ports. Then, due to storms, many mines were torn from their anchors, after which they drifted and ended up off the coast of Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey. She did not rule out that the situation could repeat itself.

On June 30, an explosion occurred off the coast in Odessa. A column of water rose a few meters from the shore. Those who observed the incident suggested that a mine could have detonated in the water area.
