KYIV: Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky on Monday visited troops in the frontline region of Donetsk, where Kyiv has been painstakingly clawing back territory from Russian forces around the war-battered city of Bakhmut. “Today we are working in Donetsk region. We discussed with the brigade commander problems faced by the warriors and proposals for their solution,” Zelensky said in a statement on social media, referring to a meeting with troops from the 22nd separate mechanised brigade.
