It has been three months in 24 days since Russia's military invasion of Ukraine.
The Russian army is intensifying its offensive toward full control of the two eastern states of Ukraine, but the Ukrainian army, which receives military support from Europe and the United States, counterattacks, and the offense and defense of both sides are expected to be prolonged without any signs of convergence.
It has been three months in 24 days since Russia invaded Ukraine in February.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky released a video on the 23rd, saying, "Since February 24, Russian troops have launched 1474 missile attacks, most of which were aimed at civilian facilities."
He added, "There are more than 3,000 airstrikes by aircraft and helicopters, and no other country has withstood such an attack." , Strongly condemned the Russian army's fighting behavior for three months from the start of the invasion.
After declaring that the Russian army has taken control of Mariupol, a key point in eastern Donetsk Oblast, which has continued to fight fiercely on the 20th, it aims to take full control of Donetsk Oblast and neighboring Luhansk Oblast, especially Luhansk Oblast in the near future. As for the outlook, it is intensifying its offensive against Severodonetsk, which is said to be the last base on the Ukrainian side in the state.
In addition, the Russian army is strengthening the established fact of rule in southern Kherson Oblast, which is said to have seized control, and on the 23rd, a representative of the pro-Russian faction of the state said, "Russian currency ruble and Ukrainian currency hryvnia are used at the same time. I will do it. "
On the other hand, many issues have been pointed out for the Russian army, such as the chain of command of its troops and the lack of weapons.
Under these circumstances, the delegation of the Russian government in Geneva, Switzerland, has been disturbed, as it has been revealed that Russian diplomats have resigned in protest of the government that continues to invade the military.
In response, U.S. Secretary of Defense Austin announced on the 23rd at a meeting of related countries discussing the defense of Ukraine that Denmark will provide Ukraine with an anti-ship missile "harpoon", and the Ukrainian army will support Western military support. The counterattack is strengthened by the tailwind, and the offense and defense in the eastern part is intensifying.
Three months after the invasion, Russia, which is trying to strengthen its control mainly in the eastern and southern parts, and Ukraine, which is trying to push it back, are expected to prolong without showing any signs of convergence.
