Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced new long-range operations against Russia following a meeting with Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyi and Chief of the General Staff Andrii Hnatov.
The President made the statement during his evening address, according to Ukrinform.
“There was a briefing from the Security Service of Ukraine – Major General Khmara – including on internal security here in Ukraine. We are continuing operations against those who chose not Ukraine but assistance to the enemy. Ukraine will be tough with them,” Zelensky said.
He added that a detailed meeting had taken place on Wednesday with Syrskyi and Hnatov.
“I approved our new long-range operations – this is what is needed to make Russia feel that it will have to pay for the war with its own losses. Russia’s oil industry will continue to be reduced if Russia chooses war,” the head of state stressed.
