Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky, after a report by Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrsky, reported that the Russian army tried to intensify assault operations on the battlefield under the cover of the latest massive strike.
Points of attention
- Zelenskyy claimed about 150 Russian attacks and over 4,500 shellings during April 24.
- The greatest tension was observed in the Pokrovsky direction.
Russia does not abandon attempts for a new breakthrough
As Syrskyi informed Zelensky, over the past 24 hours, almost 150 Russian attacks against positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and over 4,500 shelling, including from heavy weapons, have been recorded.
What is important to understand is that the most severe situation was in the Pokrovsky direction.
In fact, the Russians tried to develop assault operations under the cover of their massive strike. When the maximum of our forces was focused on defense against missiles and drones, the Russians significantly intensified their ground attacks. The Russians received a worthy rebuff.
