He told CNN that these plans show the Kremlin has no serious intention of ending its war against Ukraine.Amid Russia’s massive strikes with missiles and 'kamikaze' drones, Umerov stressed that Ukraine needs more air defense systems and interceptor drones.Still, he assured that the enemy has not achieved any strategic objectives on the battlefield. The situation, he said, is currently stabilized.“Our strategy is not to allow them to maneuver. Even if their media claim that Russian forces are advancing — they have been stopped: in the north, in Sumy region, in Zaporizhzhia region, and near Pokrovsk,” Umerov stated.Earlier, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyi reported that despite Russia’s threefold advantage in manpower and equipment, Ukraine’s Defense Forces regained control over 58 km² of territory in August and liberated several settlements.
