⚡️Institute for the Study of War: Russia deploys security forces to Luhansk, forcibly transfers Ukrainian children to Russia.
The U.S. think tank reports that the Russian proxies in Luhansk Oblast announced joint patrols with police detachments from Russia’s Leningrad Oblast, which may signal that support for the war is dwindling.
The ISW also suggests that Russian forces may have conducted a false flag attack on the headquarters of the leader of the Kremlin’s proxies in Donetsk on Aug. 23 to justify an attack on Ukrainian government buildings on Independence Day.

⚡️ Zelensky, during his interview to Russian media, criticized the Russian authorities' treatment of the killed soldiers, who are either abandoned or taken home in what he described as "garbage bags."

He said he didn't understand why the soldiers' families were accepting it. Image
Zelensky on Russians whose close ones were killed in Ukraine:

“I don't understand them. In their place, I would have burned everything I see. Our people would have beaten up a local person in power.”
Zelensky on Russians abandoning their killed soldiers:
“It’s scary because when this is how they treat their own people, then how do they treat others? It’s barbarism and it will end badly."

At the end of his address to the U.S. Congress, Zelensky switched to English:

"Today the Ukrainian people are defending not only Ukraine. We are fighting for the values of Europe and the world, sacrificing our lives in the name of the future."
"That’s why today the American people are helping not just Ukraine, but the world to keep the planet alive, to keep justice in history."
"Now I’m almost 45 years old. Today my age stopped, when the hearts of more than 100 children stopped beating. I see no sense in life if it cannot stop the death.
And this is my main mission as the leader of my people, great Ukrainians."
