Zelensky Discusses Strikes on Russia and Announces New Retaliatory Measures.
Review of Sanctions Report Against Russia
According to Novyny.live: On June 24, President Volodymyr Zelensky received a briefing from Oleh Ivashchenko on the implementation of the sanctions plan targeting Russia. The discussion also covered strikes on Russian military sites, the current state of Russia's missile production, and its strategic bomber fleet. In response to these developments, Vladimir Putin stated that he sees no reason for a personal meeting with Zelensky.
Notably, the briefing highlighted the destruction of over 60,000 tons of ammunition at a Baltic Fleet arsenal near St. Petersburg. Additionally, Russia has begun redeploying some air defense systems from various regions to Moscow and the area around the Kerch Bridge. These moves indicate Moscow's efforts to protect itself, particularly from the threat of Ukrainian strikes.
Frontline Situation and Calls for Action
Zelensky emphasized that
“these two perimeters are essentially what the Russians have been ordered to defend, at the expense of weakening other positions on their own territory and in temporarily occupied parts of Ukraine.”He also stressed that Ukraine is preparing new, fully justified retaliatory steps in response to Russia's prolongation of the war and its attacks on Ukrainian soil.
In a related development, Donald Trump has privately urged Zelensky to increase pressure on Russia. The conflict remains tense, with both sides actively responding to each other's actions.
This meeting underscores Ukraine's need to adapt its strategies as the military situation evolves. Meanwhile, Russia's decision to shift air defense systems reflects its attempt to bolster defenses. The next moves by either side remain uncertain, as diplomatic efforts—including Trump's calls—could shape the conflict's trajectory.
