"The frontline situation remains very difficult in the key areas of Donbas – Bakhmut, Soledar, Maryinka, Kreminna... For a long time already there is no living place left on the land of these areas – undamaged by shells and fire. The occupiers actually destroyed Bakhmut, another Donbas city that the Russian army turned into burnt ruins. I thank all our heroes, all soldiers and commanders who are holding the frontline in these directions, repulsing attacks and inflicting significant losses on the enemy – in response to the hell that entered Ukraine under the Russian flag. Glory to everyone who fights for Ukraine! Gratitude to everyone who works for the sake of our people! Eternal memory to all those who gave their lives for independence!
