Russia, having disrupted all the deadlines for the offensive operation, continues to consider the possibility of cordoning off separate groups of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) in order to put forward regular ultimatums during the negotiation process, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said.

"However, the Russian occupiers, in violation of international humanitarian law, do not stop the targeted destruction of the infrastructure of cities with artillery fire, missile and air strikes, and the chaotic mining of the area and the destruction of agricultural equipment threatens the start of the sowing campaign in certain regions of Ukraine," the AFU said in the statement on Facebook.

It is noted that in Slobozhansky direction, in the city of Volchansk, the enemy, showing the "humanitarian mission" of Russia, organized a demonstration distribution of the so-called "humanitarian aid" to local residents under a personal signature and with a passport of a citizen of Ukraine.

In addition, in the temporarily occupied territories of Zaporizhia region, the enemy, due to problems with logistical support, is trying to replenish fuel supplies by withdrawing it from the civilian population and farmers.
