The Ukrainian Armed Forces allegedly used British Challenger 2 tanks during an offensive in the Kursk region of Russia. This may be the first time that these tanks have been used by Ukrainian troops in Russia.

Advisor to the head of the OP pointed the finger at Russia in case of the explosions on the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline. Podolyak stated that Ukraine has no relation to the incident and did not receive any benefits from it.

Advisor to the head of the OP Podolyak stated that Ukraine is not interested in the occupation of the border regions of the Russian Federation. The Ukrainian military is only carrying out tasks to ensure security around the borders of Ukraine.

The advisor to the head of the OP outlined the objectives of the operation: to cut off Russian logistics, push back artillery, show the weakness of the Russian leadership and move the war to the aggressor's territory. Ukraine is not planning an occupation, but only the destruction of military facilities.

Russian propaganda spreads fakes about Ukraine's plans to use banned weapons in the Kursk region. This may indicate that the Russians are preparing a chemical weapons provocation to accuse Ukraine.

The OP adviser said that the offensive in Kursk region demonstrates Russia's vulnerability. According to him, there are two ways to end the war: ground operations and long-range strikes deep into Russia.

Mykhailo Podolyak, an adviser to the Presidential Administration, said that the international community has recognized Russia as a legitimate target for any operations and types of weapons. This is the result of Ukraine's diplomatic and legal work.

OP advisor Mykhailo Podolyak believes that Russia will agree to negotiations only when it realizes that the war is not going according to its plan. This will happen when Russian losses increase and the war spreads deeper into its territory.

Mykhailo Podolyak, Advisor to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, said after the Russian authorities complained about the "breakthrough" in the Kursk region that the reason for the escalation, including in the territory of Russia, is the very fact of Russian aggression, and war has its own rules, and the aggressor always reaps the corresponding benefits.

Mykhailo Podolyak, Advisor to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, commented on the events in the Kursk region of the Russian Federation. He said that the lack of an adequate response to the counterwar would only confirm the idea of "a strong conscious relationship between Russians and their government.

The advisor to the head of the OP said that Ukraine would not comment on the information about receiving F-16s. He called it a topic where the 'fog of war' is appropriate, as it should be reflected on the battlefield.

The advisor to the head of the Presidential Office explained that "strikes deep into Russia" mean the systematic destruction of Russian military infrastructure, logistics, and resources to weaken its ability to wage war in Ukraine.

Mykhailo Podolyak noted that countries that are serious about mediation between Ukraine and Russia will not publicly declare this, as mediation in major wars requires understanding the aggressor, the victims and violations of international law, as opposed to simply calling for an immediate ceasefire.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to consider a ceasefire and start negotiations to speed up the peace process.

With such a volume of aggression and war crimes on the part of the Russian Federation, real peace can only be guaranteed in the event of a military victory for Ukraine. It is the partners who should abandon delays and provide Kiev with weapons.

According to presidential advisor Mykhailo Podolyak, russia's talk of "peace" and "truce" is a facade for restoring and redeploying forces, while continuing to attack Ukrainian cities and civilians.

Mykhailo Podoliak explained that the Kremlin is increasingly isolating Russia, moving to a militarized economy for "war" and redistributing power among Putin's inner circle. Also, recent personnel changes indicate a growing distrust within the Putin regime.

The failed missile attack on Israel demonstrates the technological backwardness of Iran and similar countries, and at the same time proves the need for the civilized world to disarm dictatorial regimes.

There are no alternative "peace plans" that provide for "no/losing to Russia". The only acceptable formula is Russia's unconditional withdrawal from Ukraine, emphasizes Mykhailo Podolyak.

Mykhailo Podolyak, advisor to the head of the OP, believes that the idea of making peace with russia in exchange for Ukrainian territories is politically naive, as russia will not honor any agreements and will continue its aggression.

Ukraine sees no alternative to strikes on Russian military infrastructure, including oil refineries, to significantly reduce Russia's potential for aggression, as sanctions and business interests still allow Russia to finance the war.

Russia continues to escalate the war in Ukraine, throwing all its resources into intense fighting without achieving its main goals, so the partners must dramatically increase military production and arms supplies to Ukraine for an effective military solution.

Russia's accusations of Ukraine's involvement in the Crocus City Hall terrorist attack were denied by Mykhailo Podolyak, an advisor to the Office of the President of Ukraine, who called them chronic lies and collective inadequacy.

Podoliak dismissed putin's accusations of Ukraine's involvement in the moscow terrorist attack as inadequate and ridiculous, asking why some politicians still believe putin is capable of negotiating or reaching agreements.

russia is trying to falsely link Ukraine to the terrorist attack near Moscow to encourage more russians to die in its senseless war against Ukraine and to instill hatred of Ukrainians and the West, despite the lack of evidence.

A shooting incident occurs in the Crocus City Hall shopping center near Moscow. The President's Office emphasizes that Ukraine has nothing to do with the attack.

Mykhailo Podolyak, Advisor to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, said that Putin's idea to create a "buffer zone" in Ukraine is a clear sign that the war will only escalate.

Russians launched a missile strike on Odesa, killing 14 people, on the day of the fake "presidential election. " This is a clear signal that Russia will continue to wage destructive wars involving mass murder of citizens of other countries, Podoliak said.

Russian volunteer units demand that the governors of Kursk and Belgorod regions evacuate civilians from the war zone, as they plan to continue mass strikes in these regions.

IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi downplayed the possibility of nuclear war amid Putin's threats.
