, as you know, today in our country, in accordance with the russian constitution, president ial elections began, with the aim of disrupting the voting process, intimidating people, at least in the regions bordering ukraine, kiev the neonazi regime is planning to carry out a series of criminal, demonstrative armed actions. This is, first of all , striking civilian settlements on russian territory; about 95 of enemy missiles and projectiles are destroyed by our air defense systems. However, unfortunately, we have casualties among civilians. All their families will certainly be provided with all the necessary help and support. These enemy attacks do not and will not remain unpunished. The forces and means used by the enemy amounted to over 2,500 personnel, 35 tanks, about forty armored combat vehicles, the enemy had no success in any direction, was thrown back everywhere and retreated, or rather fled with heavy losses, about 60 among personnel, over 50 in armored vehicles. The purpose of these actions, senseless from a Military Point of view and criminal from a humanitarian point of view, is, as has already been said, an attempt to interfere with the president ial elections in russia. I am sure that our people, the people of russia, will respond to this with even greater unity. Who did they decide to intimidate . Russian people, multinational people of russia. This was not sure, it would never happen. Another possible goal of an action of this kind is to divert the attention of its own people and the public of other countries, from which the kiev regime is trying to humiliatingly beg for money for all kinds of handouts, to divert attention from the real state of affairs on the line of combat contact, where the Russian Armed forces confidently hold the initiative and move step by step, showing courage and heroism, they achieve solutions to the tasks assigned to them and the combat tasks, thus creating the necessary basic conditions for ensuring the security of russia, the internal political stability of our state, and ultimately for achieving all the goals of national development, for the future of our homeland, which, despite any consequences of our enemies and illwishers, will, without any doubt, be reliably ensured.
