Due to the number of casualties, Russian troops are forced to take an operational pause and not moving towards Kyiv.
This was reported by the Adviser to the President of Ukraine Oleksiy Arestovych.
"The enemy has an operational pause, and it was not taken voluntarily, but due to heavy losses – the enemy continues to congregate West of Kyiv, but we are shelling them with artillery. We have broken their pace and they are not moving towards Kyiv now" Arestovich said.
He also stressed that Sumy is completely under the control of Ukraine, and Russian troops around the city are demoralized. There is no active combat at the moment.
