According to the BBC, Putin mentioned the 'special operation' in Ukraine in his Christmas greeting and praised the churches for 'supporting heroes' - the deceased occupiers and residents of the occupied territories.
"Deep and sincere respect deserves the efforts of religious organizations aimed at supporting our heroes - participants of the special military operation, residents of Donbas and Novorossiya," he said.
