The spokeswoman for the Defense Forces of Southern Ukraine, Nataliya Gumenyuk, explained that the hysteria of the occupiers regarding the counteroffensive of the Ukrainian Armed Forces is obviously also going "according to the plan" that the Russians constantly talk about.

She said this on May 12 on the air of the telethon.

"As the occupiers like to repeat: 'everything is going according to plan'. It's just that they don't know the whole plan," Humenyuk said.

It will be recalled that on May 11, Prigozhin said that the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine had apparently already begun, and that the Ukrainian military was breaking through the enemy's flanks in the direction of Bakhmut.

Russian "militants" also began to write about this in a panic on the Internet.
