Russia increases pressure on the front line, Ukraine promises to respond to the attack

In his evening address, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky pointed to a new deployment and grouping of Russian forces in some sections of the front line. In his opinion, Moscow rejects any peace efforts and continues to attack Ukrainian targets.

Although Zelensky did not provide any further details on the specific locations, he emphasized that Kyiv would respond to the ongoing attacks.

The warning comes at a time of intense fighting on the front lines and increased pressure from Russia to gain territorial advantages ahead of possible ceasefire negotiations.

Meanwhile, Ukraine is strengthening its defense capabilities and appealing to its partners for further military support.
