Now, thanks to the Ukrainian Defense Forces and the measures taken, it was possible to add confidence near Volchansk, Kharkov region, where Russian troops are trying to advance. But the shelling of the occupiers does not stop, there are still threats.
President Vladimir Zelensky stated this in a video message following the 813th day of Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine.

Situation near Volchansk
In particular, the head of the Volchansk administration was wounded today. Ukrainian counterstrike operations continue in other areas in the border areas of the Kharkov region.
There should be more Ukrainian results in repelling assaults and destroying Russian occupiers, the president is convinced.
— Russia is trying to expand the war, and invariably accompanies this with empty words about peace. We must force Russia to a real and just peace by all means. Our protection from assaults and strikes — decisive, — says the head of state.
According to Vladimir Zelensky, work continues with partners to give, in particular, Kharkov, Donetsk, Sumy and other Ukrainian regions more basic protection, namely — air defense systems and sufficiently long-range weapons.
Battles in the Donetsk region
At the same time, the situation in the Donetsk region — on Pokrovsky, Kramatorsk and other directions.
There are the greatest number of combat clashes and harsh circumstances. Of course, this direction does not go unnoticed, the President of Ukraine convinces.
At the same time, Vladimir Zelensky thanked Denmark for the new defense package to Ukraine in the amount of €750 million. According to him, this is a timely decision that will help strengthen Ukrainian air defense and artillery.
