The Armed Forces of Ukraine more frequently start counterattacks in various parts of the front. And "enemy helicopters on fire in Chornobayivka in the Kherson region is a visual demonstration of what is happening now with the occupying forces."
The Minister of Defense of Ukraine Oleksiy Reznikov announced this on his Facebook page.
More than 200 cities and villages in Russia have already buried the invaders eliminated on our land. This number will grow every day. The Kremlin can no longer hide the devastating losses of airborne troops. Some troops from Kostroma, Kamyshyn, Ulan-Ude, and other regions are already collectively storming hell. The same direction is waiting for marines from the Pacific fleet of RF, which are getting ready for battle in a firefighting manner. The effective actions of our army undermined intervention forces. We will meet these as well," Reznikov said.
According to him, despite the losses, the Russian aggressor continues to commit war crimes against civilians.
"In 20 days, the deaths of 103 Ukrainian children killed by Russian invaders have been confirmed. In addition, the Russians have destroyed and damaged more than 400 schools and, more than 100 Ukrainian hospitals, thousands of homes. He said that a real act of genocide is being committed against Mariupol," he said.
He assured that "all criminals will be punished."
"We will take revenge on each of our citizens ... Several Russian generals have already been killed. Time will come for others as well. We will do everything for this," Reznikov wrote.
The Minister said that the Ukrainian authorities are having negotiations with many states and communities to strengthen the defense capabilities of our state.
"The world has changed. The Rubicon has been crossed. Now the free world is Ukraine-centric," Reznikov said.
The head of the Ministry of Defense addressed the Russians, especially public figures, who suddenly "regained vision." He said that "no Ukrainian will take your word for it anymore. No one will believe that you" did not know "or that you were" deceived." That is why he appealed for protests in the Russian streets to "change your position in the list of war criminals. "
Reznikov also addressed the residents of CADLR (certain areas of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions) and Crimea. He noted that Ukraine continues to call them its citizens.
"If now you are being forcibly mobilized into the Russian army, do your best not to get to the front ... If you can not do this, look for a way to join the Ukrainian army immediately. You will save your life. This is the main thing. We will deal with the rest later. "- the Minister of Defense assured.
Reznikov addressed traitors to flee or surrender.
"If you surrender along with the military equipment, provide important information, or help capture Russian officers, this will be considered a significant mitigating circumstance when bringing you to justice. Save your life, serve your sentence, get a chance to start all over again in peace. So do not wait, "added the head of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
