As you can see, Ukraine's capital was on the verge of being captured in just one day, as you can see before the Russian airstrikes were carried out simultaneously from multiple directions.

Then, we will explain in detail where the Russians have occupied and where they are attacking with a map.



Reporter Hyung-woo Hyung will tell you.

The place of interest on the northern front is Chernobyl, which is on the way to the capital, Kiev.



It was only 16 km away from the border with Belarus, but it was taken over by the Russian army at dawn today (25th).



The Chernobyl nuclear power plant is a place that has left the world traumatized by a nuclear disaster.



There was a lot of concern because it was reported that there had been a fighting around the nuclear power plant, but the International Atomic Energy Agency has determined that no damage has occurred at the nuclear power plant.



On the Eastern Front, the first major city for Russian troops to enter was Kharkov.



It is the second city with a population of 1.4 million and is the industrial center of Ukraine.



This was the reason why the Russian army made it their first occupation target.



Then we'll go south.



On the southern front, Russian troops deployed airborne units and amphibious assault ships based on the Crimean Peninsula annexed from Ukraine in 2014.



It also landed in Odessa, the largest port city in Ukraine and a tourist city called the 'Jewel of the Black Sea', and Mariupol, a heavy industry city.



It then took control of the canal border city of Kherson, which is a key point supplying the canal water to the Crimea.



Major cities in the inland, such as western Ukraine, were also not safe.



Lviv, the largest city in the West and the center of Ukrainian history and culture.



Dnipro, an industrial and transport center located in central Ukraine, was also hit by precision missiles.



The three-way ground advance and missile bombardment on major cities reportedly left Ukraine's major ports, airports and industrial centers unstoppable for a counterattack.
