The tenth day of heroic opposition of the Ukrainian people to the Russian military invasion has begun.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine and units of the Security and Defense Forces of Ukraine are conducting fierce battles to liberate Ukrainian cities from Russian invaders, according to the morning  summary of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Units and subdivisions of the invaders are demoralized, soldiers and officers of the occupying army continue to surrender, flee, leaving weapons and equipment on Ukrainian soil.

Active hostilities cause damage to the enemy not only by the armed units of the Ukrainian defenders, but also by ordinary unarmed people, demonstrating their civil position to the occupier, inflicting psychological defeat on him.

Faced with constant resistance and realizing the illegality of their actions, the occupiers continue shelling the civilian population, inflicting rocket and bomb attacks on critical infrastructure facilities and residential buildings, hospitals, kindergartens, using women, children and the elderly as a “human shield”. 

They do not abandon attempts to create a picture of a liberating “blitzkrieg” in their own information space, continue to spread total lies through subservient media, take measures to conceal losses in personnel and equipment by blocking the population’s access to truthful and objective information.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine continue to hold certain lines in all directions, and in some directions they counterattack and force the enemy to retreat with losses, disrupt rear communications and deliver crushing blows.

“Unfortunately, we cannot tell about all our successes so as not to disrupt our plans. But believe me, everything will become known in due time,” the message says.
