The main objective of Russia’s large-scale attack on Ukraine in broad daylight has been revealed
Andriy Kovalenko, head of the Centre for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine, reported this on Telegram.
“The main aim of the Russians in such attacks in the middle of the day is to increase the number of civilian casualties,” noted Kovalenko.
