Had a call with #GenMilley,Chairman of @thejointstaff. Informed about the latest 🇷🇺missile attack, emphasized the importance of AD assets, thanked for providing them. Shared my concern about 🇷🇺’s use of Naval UAS which poses a threat to civilian maritime shipping in the Black Sea Discussed the course of hostilities. The tensest situation today is along the Donetsk axis, where the enemy conducts up to 50 attacks every day. Fierce fighting continues in the vicinity of Vuhledar & Maryinka. We reliably hold the defence.

Had my first telephone conversation in the new year with #GenMilley, Chairman of @thejointstaff.
I told him about changes in the operational and strategic situation, primarily on the land and in the air space of Ukraine⬇️ Fierce fighting is going on along Svatove-Kreminna line, also in the direction of Lysychansk. The most challenging situation remains in Soledar-Bakhmut-Mayorsk area,🇷🇺is virtually attempting to advance over their corpses, but 🇺🇦Defenсe Forces units constrain the enemy's offensive

In a conversation with #GenMilley, Chairman of @thejointstaff, thanked for everything done for us by the 🇺🇸people. Assured, we’ll fight until we have no strength. Our goal is to liberate the whole 🇺🇦land. 🇺🇦soldiers will accept no negotiations, agreements or compromise solutions. Have informed my 🇺🇸counterpart on the operational picture & urgent needs of #AFU.
Situation on the frontline is stable & controlled. We are tracking attentively the enemy’s activities on the border with belarus & building a reliable shield for the protection of 🇺🇦 in the North.

Significant efforts of our military are behind the so-called “goodwill gesture” of the enemy. Just as the enemy retreated from Kyiv and Kharkiv oblast, abandoned Zmiinyi (Snake) Island, the likely pullout from Kherson are the outcome of our active operations.
#ValeriiZaluzhnyi Directly along the Kherson axis, 🇺🇦Defence Forces have destroyed the logistic lines & support system, disrupted the enemy’s command & control system.
Thus, 🇷🇺 was left with no other option but to resort to fleeing.

This is how the aggressor state 🇷🇺 carries out air-to-surface & surface-to-surface missile attacks on 🇺🇦territory. Situation as of 10:20-11:00.
Enemy used air-,sea- & land based missiles; ballistic missiles; surface-to-air missiles; reconnaissance & attack UAVs of Shahed-136 type Air defence Assets of Air Force, Land Forces of 🇺🇦Armed Forces & our air defence units destroyed the majority of lethal missiles & projectiles. With such an intensity of simultaneous attacks from all directions, they have demonstrated professionalism & devotion to their deal.
