The situation in eastern Ukraine is difficult, with many Russian troops and heavy losses on the part of the enemy. This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a meeting with Prime Minister of Iceland Bjarni Benediktsson, UNN reports.
"From the very beginning of the Russian invasion, our guys, our soldiers, heroic men and women, they have been holding on as much as they can. In the east, the situation is really difficult because there are many Russians there, and they do not think that these are people for them. Many Russians are dying every day," Zelensky said.
The President emphasized that yesterday Russia lost 800 people killed in the east alone.
"We think first of all about people and then about the land, but in any case, we remain as strong as possible," he added.
