President Zelenskyy: I’m receiving hourly updates on the situation in Sumy

“I am receiving hourly updates on the situation in Sumy, where recovery efforts are still ongoing at the site of a Russian Shahed strike. An ordinary residential building was destroyed,” said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a traditional address to the Ukrainian nation on Jan. 30.

I wish you health, fellow Ukrainians!

Here’s the report for today.

The Commander-in-Chief provided an update on the frontline and the Kursk operation. There are achievements for which our brigades deserve recognition, particularly the 225th Separate Assault Battalion, which is bravely and persistently destroying the enemy, as well as the 82nd Separate Air Assault Brigade – well done, guys! Today, I also extend my gratitude to the Special Operations Forces for their effective strikes on Russian soldiers and equipment. It is very important that every day gives us new results – and that these results are the enemy’s losses, Russia’s losses.

I also had an extensive conversation today with Budanov about our objectives, future prospects, and various scenarios. It is essential to act proactively.
