“There was also a detailed military report today from Commander-in-Chief Syrskyi, primarily regarding the Donetsk directions. I thank all our units on the frontlines for fully completing their tasks, steadfastly repelling Russian assaults and reclaiming our positions,” said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a traditional address to the Ukrainian nation on September 9.
Good health to you, fellow Ukrainians!
I held a meeting of the Staff. Several key issues were discussed. Protection of energy infrastructure from Russian strikes. Defense of our positions on the frontline. We thoroughly addressed the issue of artillery supply to the troops, including our “Bohdana” howitzers, and the provision of equipment to our brigades.
Regarding the energy sector, there are clear deadlines and requirements for each facility, both in terms of physical protection and air defense. We need the same clear approach to implementing all the necessary measures. Responsibility for this is entirely personal – both for the construction of protective structures and for the operation of air defense systems.
We are also working in detail on equipping our combat brigades and reserve brigades.
Separately today, Defense Minister of Ukraine, Umerov, delivered a report on the outcomes of the “Ramstein” meeting and his negotiations with partners. All agreements reached must be implemented as quickly as possible. What is needed in September must be delivered to our troops in September. What we agreed upon for the following months must also be delivered on time. The course of the war directly depends on the quality of logistics in supply and the fulfillment of all promises by partners.
