Quote: "After they [the Russians – ed.] began striking our logistics, we found another logistical approach and responded to them. The losses there are staggering – a trillion roubles [approximately US$12 billion – ed.]… It was a very successful operation by Ukrainian forces. It involved the Armed Forces, the Special Operations Forces, Defence Intelligence, the Security Service and the Foreign Intelligence Service. Today we act in a coordinated way when carrying out long-range or even mid-range strikes."
