Well, let's go back to winter and war.

Major General Volodin spoke. And Ukraine, Kiev, the regime needs an offensive. It is simply necessary. Why? These strikes on infrastructure, which, by the way, both the West and we are involved in, are presented as strikes to cut off people's electricity, to deprive them of water, they suffer.

First of all, these are strikes specifically on infrastructure to disrupt the ability to supply the Armed Forces of Ukraine with food and weapons and everything else, that is, these are purely military strikes that have nothing to do with the civilian population, the goal is not to leave them without electricity and make them sit in the dark, but the West will constantly talk about how they are without electricity, how they suffer, how they have no water, and in this situation, when the Kiev regime admits that in many ways this whole system is disrupted. They need to boost morale. Both the population and the army need at least one more victory. And despite the winter, despite the changed situation, as said by a participant in the military operations, and there is information from other areas of the operation that the troops are being almost fully equipped. But the equipment is filling the gaps that appeared during the battles. Food supplies are coming in. That is, there is a sense of a new military hand and significant work is being done on defensive lines. That is, our army is now more reliable in combat readiness. But to boost morale in Kiev, just statements that 80%, 90% should endure, they will endure, we will stand until the end, they don't work.
