On February 24, Russia began a new stage of the eight-year war against Ukraine – a full-scale offensive. The enemy massively shells and bombs Ukrainian cities and villages. The Ukrainian Armed Forces, the Territorial Defense Forces, and the entire Ukrainian people effectively resist the Russian troops and inflict heavy losses on them.
