⚡️Oleksiy Danilov, Secretary of the National Security&Defense Council @NSDC_ua:
🔻Ukrainian military & territorial def have so far recaptured the tactical initiative, but the enemy doesn't abandon plans to surround Kyiv, Kharkiv, and to reach Luhansk&Donetsk oblasts' adm borders

At the same time, the Russian occupation command has already used at least 95% of the prepared battle groups and needs an urgent increase in reserves - Danilov of @NSDC_ua

🔻Aware of the weakness of their own positions and in order to buy time for redeployment and renewal, the enemy inflicts intense air and missile and artillery strikes on military and civilian targets - Danilov of @NSDC_ua

🔻Last night, the Putin regime put the world at risk of global catastrophe as Russian terrorist troops fired on the territory of the Zaporizhzhya NPP - Danilov of @NSDC_ua

All of this is due to the Kremlin's inability to achieve its goals in Ukraine by military means, which led to Putin's authorization of openly terrorist methods - Danilov of @NSDC_ua

This is evidenced, in particular, by Russia's use of ambulances marked with Red Cross to transport weapons&ammunition; by, first of all, Russian special op & landing forces wearing the Ukrainian military uniform; by shelling of civilian areas, cities, villages - Danilov

🔻The southern direction remains hot, there the invading force is concentrating resources for active actions aimed at surrounding Odesa - Danilov of @NSDC_ua
