Ukraine is launching a three-pronged onslaught while Russia is bombing Odesa.



 While the Security Council was preparing to hold a session on the issue of grain exports, Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke today, Friday, of what he called the West's disappointment with the Ukrainian counterattack. His forces also continued to launch precise strikes on the city of Odesa.

Putin claimed that the Ukrainian counterattack had not materialized and expressed disappointment with Kyiv on behalf of the West. Aside from the fact that "the world is seeing Western equipment burning," he continued, tens of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers have been lost.

Putin claimed that Poland's leaders wanted to form an alliance under NATO's auspices and get involved in the situation in Ukraine. He threatened that any attack on Belarus would also attack his nation.

In the same vein, Andrei Kovalev, a spokesman for the Ukrainian General Staff, stated that his nation's forces are waging operations on three axes in the provinces of Donetsk and Zaporizhia, revealing that they have advanced in certain places and withstood Russian strikes in Liman and Kobyansk.

On the other hand, the Russian army declared that it was in charge of 5 locations and 4 observation stations in the direction of Dvorechnsk.

Ukrainian forces lost more than one battalion, a missile system produced in Poland, and a missile system made in the United States, according to a spokesman for the Russian army's Western sector.

Russian military targeted an agricultural facility for storing grain in the Odesa region with 4 Caliber missiles at daybreak today, according to Natalia Homenyuk, a spokesperson for the Southern Operations Command of the Ukrainian army, regarding the grain export issue and the tension in the Black Sea.

production facilities for drone boats and storage facilities for them were the targets of retaliatory strikes by the Russian military last night in the cities of Odessa and Illichivsk as well as the surrounding area.

Ukrainian Armed Forces' munitions stockpiles and fuel infrastructure facilities were damaged in Mykolaiv. All objectives, according to the Russian military, were effectively hit.

In this bombing of Odesa and Mykolaiv, at least 3 civilians were murdered and more than 20 others were injured. The local government published images of burned buildings and torn facades.

Ukrainian army acknowledged that it could not intercept Russian Onyx missiles and emphasized that its soldiers lacked the equipment necessary to shoot them down at the time.

In a related development, Moscow said on Friday morning that Russian soldiers had engaged in military drills that included firing missiles into the Black Sea.

According to a statement from the Russian Ministry of Defense, ships from the Russian Black Sea Fleet fired anti-ship cruise missiles "at a boat that identified a target in the combat training area in the northwestern part of the Black Sea," emphasizing that "the target ship was destroyed as a result of the missile strike."

In response, Ukraine declared it will view Black Sea Russian ship targets as potential military objectives.

In reaction to this caution, the Kremlin stated that Kyiv's words are risky to Black Sea shipping.
