Key points

The purpose of the russian missile attacks on Ukraine is to sow panic among the population and create internal tension in the country, says Natalya Humenyuk, head of the joint coordination center of the Defense Forces of Southern Ukraine. "This is psychological pressure on those regions that are considered to be deep in the rear. This is internal tension in the country so that there is no understanding that the front line is advancing and advancing towards the return of the occupiers to their country and the cleansing of our territories," Humenyuk said during the marathon.

"We will definitely restore everything that was destroyed by the occupiers," President of Ukraine Zelenskyy is confident, that russia's society with so many murderers and executioners will remain crippled for generations, and through its own fault."

the kremlin has ordered Russian forces to take control of the entire Kharkiv region, despite the extremely low probability of Russian success in such an effort, ISW reports.

Also, in the east of Ukraine, the Russians launched an offensive in several directions, but failed, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported in the morning summary:

Thus, in the Sloviansk direction, the enemy carried out assaults in the area of ​​the Ivano-Dariivka settlement, without success.

Eight years ago, russia shot down a Boeing 777 near Donetsk. About 300 innocent victims! The downing of the plane caused a new wave of international sanctions against the russian federation by Western countries. Many experts consider this a "turning point" in the russian federation's relations with the civilized world. On June 23, 2022, the PACE concluded a long-term investigation: the most convincing scenario today is that MH17 was shot down by a russian Buk.
