Russian troops in temporarily occupied cities and villages are deploying weapons and firing positions in churches.
This is reported by Ukrainska Pravda citing the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
"Once again, non-isolated cases of the enemy using civilian infrastructure, including religious facilities for equipping firing positions, placing weapons and military equipment, are recorded."
"The state, position and nature of the actions of the defense forces without significant changes. The Armed Forces of Ukraine launched crushing strikes on the rear infrastructure (field bases and warehouses) in order to disrupt the enemy's logistics support system in the territories of Ukraine temporarily occupied by the invaders.
Over the previous day, a group of Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine hit four aircraft units, three helicopters and unmanned aerial vehicles (information on the type is being clarified).
The occupation forces did not have significant success in conducting an offensive operation in all areas of advance. The main efforts of the occupiers were focused on securing and retaining the previously occupied borders."
The moral and psychological state of the enemy remains at a low level, which leads to refusals of the military personnel of the Russian armed forces to follow the orders of the command.
