🇷🇺🇺🇦 30/06/2022 The Special Military Operation in Ukraine Briefing by Russian Defense Ministry

⚡️Russian Defence Ministry report on the progress of the special military operation in Ukraine ( June 30, 2022)

◽️On June 30, as a goodwill gesture, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation finished fulfilling the assigned tasks in Snake Island and withdrew the garrison that had been operating there.

◽️The Russian Federation has demonstrated to the international society the absence of any obstacles for the efforts of UN to establish a humanitarian corridor for transporting agricultural products from Ukraine.

◽️This solution will prevent Kiev from speculating on an impending grocery crisis citing the inability to export grain due to total control of the northwestern part of the Black Sea by Russia. Now it is up to the Ukrainian side that is still not clearing the Black Sea coastline, including the harbour waters.

◽️The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation continue the special military operation in Ukraine.
