Zelensky: Invaders didn’t believe in such resistance of Ukrainian army in Donbas
Ukrainian army continues the heroic defense of Donbas, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said in a video message on Tuesday night.
"The hottest spots are the same. First of all, Severodonetsk, Lysychansk, Popasna. It is felt, absolutely felt, that the occupiers did not believe that the resistance of our military would be so strong, and now they are trying to attract additional resources in the Donbas direction. Just as in the Kherson direction – new units are being transferred there to restrain our actions, " the president said.
"But what's the point for them? The majority of the occupying contingent is already well aware that they have no prospects in Ukraine. We hear this mood in the appropriate interceptions of conversations. This is the prevailing mood in the Russian army, " he said.
