Budanov’s report detailed the situation within Russia’s defense sector, identifying key pressure points of the aggressor state that Ukrainian forces will strike to protect the nation and its people and to substantially reduce Russia’s capacity for further aggression.

Zelenskyy said that Ukraine is “preparing joint defense decisions, in particular with Britain and the European Union” and reiterated Kyiv’s commitment to keep its allies fully apprised of all intelligence developments.
He concluded by expressing his gratitude to “everyone in the world who helps us protect life”
