RUSSIA has suffered a “major defeat” this winter, one top Ukrainian official claimed.
Ukraine’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Dmytro Kuleba, took to Twitter to highlight the Kremlin’s failure to “freeze” Ukraine this winter, despite months of targeted bombing of civilian infrastructure.
He wrote: “On March 1, 2023, Putin suffered another major defeat. Despite the cold, darkness, and missile strikes, Ukraine persevered and defeated his winter terror.
“Furthermore, Europe has not ‘frozen’ despite Russian predictions and mockery. I thank our partners for standing with Ukraine.”
This comes as Putin’s bloodthirsty forces struck a five-storey apartment block in Zaporizhzhia, killing at least two civilians.
