The seventh day of the heroic resistance of the Ukrainian people to the russian invasion continues.
In the Podillia direction, the enemy is trying to continue the offensive along the border of Horenychi, Hostomel, Demidiv in the direction of KYIV in order to block the capital from the northern and north-western directions.
In the Zhytomyr region there are up to three BTGs from the 5th Combined Arms Army of the Eastern Military District of the armed forces of russian federation.
In the northern direction, up to seventeen BTGs of the occupying forces, despite the loss of manpower and equipment, continue offensive operations to block Kyiv from the northeast. The invaders were stopped in the areas of Kozelets, Bobrovytsia, and Makiiv. In the other direction, in the areas of the settlements Svitilnya, Peremoha, and Hostroluchcha, the enemy troops lost their offensive potential.
Enemy troops with forces up to two BTGs make unsuccessful attempts to keep the heroic Ukrainian cities of Sumy, Lebedyn and Okhtyrka surrounded.

In the Black Sea Operational Zone, the enemy deploys a naval group and continues preparations for a naval landing operation.
Unsuccessful in advancing its forces, the enemy insidiously continues to launch missile and bomb strikes on critical infrastructure in order to intimidate the civilian population, which is courageously side by side with the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The morale of the enemy and his will to win are rapidly declining due to the steady defence of our troops.
The occupiers have losses in all directions. Information about this - a little later.
Together we will break the enemy, because the truth is on our side! Victory will be ours! Glory to Ukraine!
