I wish you health, dear Ukrainians!
Briefly about this day. GUR – a report on the situation around Iran. There is more evidence that the Russians continue to provide the Iranian regime with intelligence assistance. This is clearly a destructive activity, and it must be stopped, since it only works for even greater destabilization. All normal states are interested in guaranteeing security and preventing bigger problems: the markets are already in the negative, and this significantly complicates the fuel situation in many countries. Therefore, by helping the Iranian regime survive and strike more accurately, the Russians are actually adding time to the war. There must be a reaction. Of course, we will also react harshly to the fact that Belarus continues to provide its services to Russia in terror against Ukraine. It has already happened that special equipment was installed on the territory of Belarus to support attacks by the “shaheeds” against Kyiv and our northern regions along the Belarusian border. This then, unfortunately, intensified Russian strikes. But we acted and eliminated the relevant antennas. Now we have information from our intelligence that Russia intends to continue to use the territory of Belarus and the still temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine for the construction of ground control stations for long-range drones. There will be answers to this. And they will be tangible.
Today there was a report from the Security Service of Ukraine - Major General Khmara. First of all, about our long-range activity against Russian oil wallets. I am grateful to the soldiers for their accuracy. The Russian war should not receive additional resources from the geopolitical situation and such crisis oil prices. Also, the SBU has, as always, good front-line results in destroying the occupier. Work is also constantly ongoing against the enemy's agent networks. In particular, today there was a report on the elimination of precisely such networks of Russian influence that operated through religious communities. Major General Oleksandr Poklad was present at the report: in particular, we managed to prevent crimes on the territory of our state - the Russians were preparing assassination attempts. There were appropriate detentions. We cannot talk about the details publicly now, but I am grateful to the SBU for this protection of our people.
We spoke with Defense Minister Mikhail Fedorov. We identified key issues for the near future that require solutions. We will continue to try to scale up Russian losses - we need enough drones of all types and more systematic approaches to managing people in the army so that front-line positions are stronger.
One more thing.
Today, we spoke in detail with the Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Svyrydenko and the head of Naftogaz Serhiy Koretsky about the fuel situation in Ukraine. Government officials, Naftogaz and all institutions must work very closely with fuel market participants so that supplies are uninterrupted and so that society can see more clearly what opportunities for state support exist. I am also grateful to those neighbors of Ukraine who, through reliable cooperation with us, are helping us get through this difficult period. Joint actions and coordination always help. Thank you!
And please pay attention to the alarm signals today. There is intelligence information that the Russians may be preparing a massive strike. We have already issued corresponding orders for air defense. Please take care of yourselves and Ukraine.
Glory to Ukraine!
