Russian war against Ukraine: Present situation (Ukrainian Embassy in Tunisia

MILITARY ADVANCEMENTS

• Ukrainian Defence Forces successfully hit large landing ships Yamal and Azov, a communications center, as well as several infrastructure facilities of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in the temporarily occupied Sevastopol. Ukrainian attack on enemy military facilities in the temporarily occupied Sevastopol was the largest since the beginning of the war.
• Most of the large landing ships of the enemy fleet in the Black Sea, which played a significant role in the logistics of the war, were destroyed or damaged. Russia cannot deploy its fleet in the western part of the Black Sea and is forced to withdraw ships from the occupied Crimea to the Caucasus coast.

SKY PROTECTION

• Russia has intensified air terror against Ukraine. In just a week, from March 18 to 24, the enemy attacked Ukraine with 190 missiles of various types, 140 Shahed drones, and 700 guided bombs.
• Western air defense systems are capable of shooting down almost all types of Russian missiles used to attack Ukraine. Thanks to them hundreds of thousands of lives have been saved.

RUSSIA AND INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM

• Organization Islamic State-Khorasan claimed responsibility for the terrorist attack in Krasnogorsk on March 22.
• Russia’s accusations about Ukraine’s involvement in the “Crocus” mass shooting are false and absurd. Ukraine categorically denies any such allegations.
• Putin and his henchmen are desperately trying to link the shooting to Ukraine. However, they have not provided any evidence to back up their accusations.
• Even though no one in the world believes their lies, Russian officials continue to repeat them in the mistaken belief that doing so will make them sound truer.
• These absurd claims serve three purposes: to deceive the Russian population, to fuel anti-Ukrainian hysteria, and to mobilize more Russians to die in Putin’s senseless and criminal war against Ukraine.
