Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the president of Ukraine, criticized his government's officials for sharing information with media about the country’s military operations.
“The general rule is simple: war is definitely not the time for vanity and loud statements. The less concrete details you give about our defense plans, the better it will be for the implementation of those defense plans,” Zelenskyy said in his video address.
“If you want to leave the big headlines, that's one thing. Frankly irresponsible,” he said. “If you want victory for Ukraine, then that is another thing, and you should feel your responsibility for every word you say about our state’s preparation for defense or counteroffensive.”
Ukrainian president’s comments come after reports in The New York Times and The Washington Post citing unnamed Ukrainian officials who said that Ukraine was responsible for this week's attack on a Russian airbase in Crimea.
