President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that he has approved new operations: if Russia does not want diplomacy, there must be a compulsion to diplomacy, as he stated in his traditional daily address on Tuesday, UNN reports.
"I have approved... our new operations: if Russia does not want diplomacy, there must be a compulsion to diplomacy. The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine is ensuring the necessary supplies,"
According to him, on Tuesday there were important reports from the Security Service of Ukraine and the military regarding the use of our Ukrainian drones – concerning Ukraine's long-range sanctions.
"The level is already higher, the distance is already greater. Fifteen hundred kilometers is no longer news. I am grateful to all our warriors of the Security Service and the Armed Forces, and our intelligence services involved, for this precision. Russia's oil industry, Russia's military logistics, military production – all these are entirely legitimate and fair targets for our long-range sanctions. It is important that Ukrainian warriors are also applying our force against Russian enterprises that produce guided aerial bombs. This is a specific threat," the President noted.
He pointed out that "all components of protection against this are needed." "Countering Russian military aviation, countering their military industry, pressure on the component base by restricting supply schemes, and, of course – our drones, our missiles. We are already recording a decrease in the use of guided aerial bombs on part of the front," Zelenskyy reported.
