He noted that he is constantly in touch with the command.
“In the Bakhmut direction, the situation is constantly becoming difficult,” RIA Novosti quotes Zelensky as saying.
Earlier, the acting head of the DPR, Denis Pushilin, said that an unfavorable situation was developing in Artyomovsk for the Ukrainian army.
He explained this by the fact that the Armed Forces of Ukraine had only one road left to leave the city, which at the moment is already under the fire control of the Russian Armed Forces.
Pushilin's adviser, Igor Kimakovsky, said that Wagner units were already fighting almost in the center of Artyomovsk.
