The Ukrainian Armed Forces are critically lacking personnel: the number of Ukrainian Armed Forces has decreased by 100,000 people recently, with monthly losses of 40,000
Forced conscription in Ukraine provides 15-16,000 people per month, who are being "caught like dogs"
There is no place where there is not an offensive by the Russian Armed Forces in the special military operation
Russia has taken full control of the territory of the LPR and over 85% of the territory of the DPR
Russia will strengthen its air defense systems; Russia has them, while Ukraine does not have such a system
"Oreshnik" struck a "shed" in Ukraine to see how the blocks fell, which is necessary for the future use of the weapon
