“Our position is the only one. Why do we have to hand over the city? I was born here, I grew up here, why should I leave and hand over the city? That will never happen. ”
This is what he points out, speaking exclusively to SKAI’s envoy in Kyiv, Milto Sakellarithe mayor of Chernihiv, Vladislav Atsoshenko.
The mayor describes the dramatic efforts of the Ukrainian army and the inhabitants of the city to repel the Russian army. A city that is in danger of becoming a new Mariupol.
“70% of the city’s infrastructure has been destroyed. I’m sure we will endure. The residents who have remained, understand the situation. We will endure all that God sends us. “We will stand with our army, on whose back the greatest weight falls,” said Vladislav Atsoshenko.
The mayor of Chernihiv speaks of Russian military strikes on civilians.
“When Russian pilots bomb day and not night, they see the target clearly. They fly at low altitude. “They see that they are hitting peaceful citizens.”
Ukrainian forces say they have recaptured key points and towns near the Zaporizhia region. At the same time, they stress that they will continue to fight for the next few hours to maintain control in all the suburbs around Kyiv.
At a time when hostilities continue unabated for the 32nd day, the Ukrainian President insists on sending a request for weapons.
