According to the Ukrainian general staff, at least six airfields were attacked. The Ukrainian “Pravda” quoted a representative of the Ukrainian Ministry of the Interior on its website as saying that the command centers of the Ukrainian military in Kiev and the city of Kharkiv were also being attacked with rockets.
The Russian side said: “The military infrastructure, air defense facilities, military airfields and the air force of the Ukrainian armed forces will be disabled with high-precision weapons.”
“Bild” editor Julian Röpcke reports on Russian troops who had already reached Cherson by midday. And without firing a shot. The journalist criticizes the preparation of the Ukrainians on Twitter: He asks, “Why didn’t anyone blow up a bridge”?
