Russia continues to attack civilians.<\/strong> The Russian army bombed Sumy. 500-kilogram bombs were dropped on houses on Romenska Street and Spartak Street. According to the Sumy Regional Prosecutor’s Office, the victims of the air strike were 21 people, including 2 children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Russia’s offensive stalled: a military expert.<\/strong> An Austrian military expert gives an optimistic assessment of the military situation. “Overall, unless one of Keystone Cops (command of the Russian army \u2013 Editor\u2019s Note) finds an equivalent of division of the RFA and then some way to destroy one of major Ukrainian Army units \u2013 no matter where along this frontline [previously the author wrote that the Russian army has not yet managed to defeat any of the major Ukrainian units \u2013 Editor\u2019s Note\u2013 I currently do not see how do the Russians want to make any major achievements in this war. All their available forces are engaged: there\u2019s no reserve left. Moreover, the Ukrainians have the advantage of the \u2018inner line\u2019: their communications are much shorter, while the Russians have to \u2018dance\u2019 long ways around them, and that along an insufficient road network largely running in east-west, not in north-south direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sure, restoring order in the 41st CAA might help the West OSK to \u2018find\u2019 additional forces, but that\u2019s going to take days. At the cost of ignoring large pockets of Ukrainian forces in the rear, perhaps even constructing several new roads around these, this might bring them into eastern Kyiv, but the defences there are meanwhile really well-prepared. And what then\u2026.?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Belief in victory: 78% of Ukrainians.<\/strong> In Ukraine, 78% of the adult population (over the age of 18) believes in Ukraine’s victory in the war with Russia, started by the Kremlin regime. 19.5% of Ukrainians do not believe, 2.7% could not answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is evidenced by a study conducted by the Institute of Cognitive Modeling, the Center for Social Monitoring and the First Rating System.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The level of trust in President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has also grown significantly: 75.1% of Ukrainians trust him, 16.6% do not trust him, and 8.4% could not answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Support for the president’s actions reached almost 80%. In addition, the majority of respondents – 75.3% have already helped the Armed Forces, territorial defense fighters or volunteers in the last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zelensky quotes Churchill.<\/strong> President Volodymyr Zelensky made a video address to the British House of Commons, quoting Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill and a line from William Shakespeare’s play “Hamlet.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We did not start this war, and we did not want this war. However, we do not want to lose what we have, what is ours, \u2013 our independence and our Ukraine. Just the same way you once did not want to lose your country when the Nazis started to fight your country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thirteen days of this struggle. On the first day, at four o clock in the morning we were attacked by cruise missiles. Everybody woke up \u2013 adults and children, the whole Ukraine. From that moment on, we have not been sleeping, we all have been fighting for our country, together with our army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than 50 children have been killed in 13 days of hostilities. These children could have lived, but the occupiers took their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are the country that is saving its people despite having to fight one of the biggest armies in the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018To be or not to be?\u2019 \u2013 You know this Shakespearean question well. Thirteen days ago this question could have been asked about Ukraine, but now, absolutely not. It\u2019s definitely yes, to be. It is obvious, we will be free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing-grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills. We shall never surrender!\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I want to add my own comment: we will fight on the terricones, on the banks of the Kalmius and Dnieper rivers!”                                                           <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
