“Last night, the Russian army launched another attack on Ukraine with “Shahed” drones. In particular, there is a hit in the Odesa region, in the Izmail district, not far from the Romanian border,” said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a traditional address to the Ukrainian nation on October 2.
I wish you good health, fellow Ukrainians!
Briefly about this day.
First – the report by the Head of the Foreign Intelligence Service, Oleh Ivashchenko. The key things – about the strengthening of the Service, and about our work on extremely sensitive information obtained by our Ukrainian intelligence officers. Now, in all areas and at all levels, we are preparing maximum results for the state for this fall. All the necessary content for Ramstein – the military, the Office, diplomats – everything that our partners need from Ukraine to better understand the available opportunities – all this we will ensure. On the other hand, we are also working on the intentions our enemy has. We are preparing to counter them in the way that will be most useful for the defense of Ukraine, for the protection of our people’s lives.
Second – today I have spoken several times with the Commander-in-Chief. Primarily – about the Donetsk region, about the directions where the situation is particularly difficult now. I thank each of our combat brigades for their true resilience and true bravery. Every week, in spite of everything, our warriors ensure really tangible damage to the occupier, and this is the most important thing – to exhaust the enemy and secure Ukraine’s ability to convince our partners of the steps that can radically, strategically change the military situation. We really need this determination from our partners. Long-range capabilities. And I want to separately thank every leader, all friends of Ukraine, for understanding that there is not enough pressure on Russia now, and that is why – and only why – the Russian authorities do not take diplomacy seriously. More strength is needed.
