Ukraine is fighting every day with Russian soldiers and is awaiting the supply of modern weapons, Volodymyr Zelensky said late on Tuesday. He added that the lives of thousands in the war-battered country depends on the country’s allies.

“And just as actively as we fight for a positive decision of the European Union on the candidacy for Ukraine, we fight every day for the supply of modern weapons for our country. We do not decrease our activity for a single day.

The lives of thousands of people depend directly on the speed of our partners - on the speed of implementation of their decisions to help Ukraine.

The situation on battle lines has not changed significantly, but the offensive is increasing in Donetsk.

With the help of tactical moves, the Ukrainian army is strengthening its defense in the Luhansk region, which is really the toughest area right now. The occupiers are also putting serious pressure on the Donetsk direction. In the Kharkiv region there is brutal and cynical Russian artillery shelling.

It will not give anything to the occupiers, but the Russian army is deaf to any rationality. It simply destroys, simply kills - in this way it shows its command that it is not standing still.

In the south Ukraine is defending Mykolaiv region, our Zaporizhzhia, and gradually liberate the Kherson region”, - said the President of Ukraine.
