At the Command Headquarters, the implementation of the plan for long-term sanctions against Russia was discussed. Progress is assessed as steady – the goals are being achieved. The list of requests from the Defense Forces regarding necessary supplies from partners was also updated.

They examined in detail the logistical challenges caused by Russian strikes on Odesa and the region, port infrastructure, and the maritime corridor. Reports were given by Navy Commander Oleksiy Neizhpap, Head of the Main Intelligence Directorate Oleg Ivashchenko, and government representative Serhiy Koretskyi.

The Prime Minister provided an update on efforts with partners in the region to expand cross-border cooperation. Zelenskyy expects to receive a clear list of measures from the government next week to diversify grain export routes.

As a reminder, Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced new figures regarding the losses suffered by the Russian occupiers. The figure exceeds one million soldiers. He also reported how many soldiers Ukraine has lost.
