Special and significant attention was paid to the Pokrovsk front and our Sumy Oblast – the border districts of our Sumy Oblast. We are managing to drive Russian forces out of there. I thank all our units who are truly delivering results.

Based on the past few days, special gratitude goes to the soldiers of the 225th Separate Assault Regiment – namely for their offensive actions in the border area of Sumy Oblast and for the liberation, in particular, of Andriivka."
