The Commander-in-Chief reported on the situation on the front as a whole, with particular emphasis on mobilization, the specific situation, how and what is being carried out.
He listened in detail to detailed reports at Headquarters on each combat position, each of the hottest areas. Bakhmut direction, OSOV “Khortitsa” – there was a report from the commander general (Alexander) Syrsky. How do we defend our positions, how do we strengthen this particular direction and how much we take away enemy forces.
Ugledar direction, OTG “Donetsk” – General (Yuri) Sodol reported. The situation is very difficult. We are fighting. We break the occupier and inflict extremely tangible losses on Russia. I repeat again and again: the more Russia loses right there, in the Donbas – Bakhmut, Vuhledar, Maryinka, Kremennaya, the sooner we will be able to end this war with a victory for Ukraine.”
Details: Zelensky also heard a report on the situation in the south. In particular, the situation in the Odessa direction is unchanged, “we control all possible prospects.”
General Alexander Tarnavsky reported on the operational-strategic grouping of troops “Tavria” and “concrete results of the defense.”
On the Northern direction and Kyiv there was a report by General Sergei Naev. “The general reported that the situation is completely under control, as well as along the entire northern border,” Zelensky said.
He also said that the Minister of the Interior had reported on the formation of new brigades of the Offensive Guard.
“There are very good results. This is a very useful experience of how people can and should be motivated,” Zelensky stressed.
He added that he would support such a format of work – both at Headquarters and in informing defense management.
“I want our people to know and understand what and how we are preparing, what and how we control. Of course, military issues, details of intelligence actions are something that cannot be told everything. But I want our people to have predictability and the feeling that Ukraine is moving towards its goals,” the President stressed.
