“Russia’s military operation in Ukraine is very difficult, but will continue”, Kremlin Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said for the Bosnian television station ATV. “Russia has succeeded in severely damaging the Ukrainian military machine”, said Peskov and added that with the help of high-precision missiles Russian forces had managed to destroy military production and stockpiles. Putin’s spokesperson claims that Moscow is not waging a war in Ukraine and that “Russia seeks to preserve cities and human lives”.

The Czech Republic provided Ukraine with two Soviet-era 2K12 Kub air defense systems. “The delivery includes a relatively large quantity of ammunition for them", Czech President Petr Pavel said. Prague is also considering the possibility of supplying Ukraine with Czech L-159 light fighter jets before the start of the decisive part of the battle, České Noviny reported. “let's not be surprised if Ukraine eventually gets some F-16s”. Petr Pavel added.
