We have a plan: Zelenskyу said that the Armed Forces plan to de-occupy Bakhmut and two other cities
Defense forces of Ukraine are going to de-occupy Bakhmut (Donetsk region) and two other key cities captured by Russian troops.
This was stated by the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyу during a discussion with American editors in Washington.
– We de-occupy Bakhmut. I think we are de-occupying two more cities,- he emphasized.
Zelenskyу did not name the settlements in question. He noted that Ukraine has a plan to liberate its territories.
– I won’t say which cities, I’m sorry. So we have a plan. A very, very comprehensive plan – the president noted.
Zelenskyу also stated that Ukraine will not stop its counteroffensive. He added that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin was counting on a lull in hostilities to rebuild his occupation forces.
– I knew that he needed a break, because he really lost people, a professional army. They are dead, -the president said.
Earlier, Ukrainian military intelligence stated that Ukraine will continue the counteroffensive even after the onset of cold and wet weather, even if the conditions for hostilities become difficult.
The head of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense Kyrylo Budanov believes that by winter the Armed Forces of Ukraine can destroy the land corridor from the occupied Crimea to the Russian Federation through the territories of the South of Ukraine temporarily captured by Russia.
