Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stressed in his speech that the Ukrainian government is working to bring the volume of supplies of modern combat systems to a higher level.
The United States has confirmed at various levels that modern HIMARS MLRS are being sent to Ukraine. Ukraine also expects shipments of weapons from other countries.
Moreover, the Ukrainian military has already started training on American HIMARS MLRS.
"American trainers are working with Ukrainians at an undisclosed location outside the country," ABC News Pentagon reporter Matt Seiler reported.
The first phase of training is expected to last about three weeks.
The General Staff of the UAF reports that battles continue in the central part of Severodonetsk. In the Volyn and Polissya directions, the main efforts of the armed forces of the republic of belarus are focused on strengthening the protection of the state border.
About the operational situation in other directions, you can find in our news.
According to the head of the Luhansk RMA Serhiy Hayday, Severodonetsk has every chance of being quickly liberated.
"The defenders successfully conduct local operations, take captives, and have everything they need to chase the orcs away from the regional center," Hayday noted, adding that the city is holding out.
The General Staff also reported that in the Popasna direction, the occupant units lost at least half of their soldiers and equipment, due to which "the enemy personnel is demoralized.
Unfortunately, they are not entirely destroyed. The occupants continue shelling civilian infrastructure, and in Kherson, the russians have seized passport services where they issue their passports.
This is stated in this morning's report of the regional military administrations.
The night was relatively calm in Volyn, Zakarpattia, Rivne, Ivano-Frankivsk, Chernivtsi, Lviv, Vinnytsia, Zaporizhia, Odesa, Ternopil, Khmelnytsky, Kirovohrad, Cherkasy, Kyiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, Zhytomyr and Poltava regions.
Last day rescuers of the Kharkiv garrison of the State Emergency Situations Ministry carried out 31 operational departures, of which 19 were to eliminate fires, including 10 fires caused by shelling.
"The fires caused by enemy shelling occurred in the Osnovianskyi district of Kharkiv, as well as the Kharkiv and Chuhuevskyi districts of the region. Private houses, household outbuildings, garages, agricultural and storage facilities, and coniferous forest were damaged," the press service of the State Emergency Situations Department reported.
As of today, the amount of damage to Ukraine's environment caused by the russian attack exceeds 200 billion hryvnias.
Recorded cases are added daily to the mobile application "Ecozahroza" ("Ecothreat"), which everyone can join, said Minister of Environmental Protection and Natural Resources Ruslan Strilets.
However, not all losses caused to us by invaders can be measured in money. "There are ecosystems that will probably never recover or will take hundreds of years to recover," said the minister. "If we are talking about burnt-out trees that have been growing for 50-100 years or scorched hectares of protected areas. And no amount of money will restore them."
The fullest picture of the current day will surely be on our website.
Let's hold on and bring Victory closer!
