Russia ‘intensifying’ Donetsk battle, ‘superior’ in numbers: Kyiv
Ukraine has said that Russia was upping the pressure in the fight for Bakhmut in the eastern Donetsk region, and that Kyiv’s forces were outnumbered and outgunned.
“The enemy is intensifying pressure in the Bakhmut and Vuhledar sectors. Now in Donbas, against their superior number of soldiers and weapons, we have the advantage of professional military command and the courage of soldiers,” Ukraine’s Deputy Defence Minister Hanna Malyar said in a statement.
