Zelensky: Russians told about ‘capture’ of Soledar to support mobilization

“Now the terrorist state and its propagandists are trying to pretend that some part of our city of Soledar – a city that was almost completely destroyed by the occupiers – is allegedly some kind of Russia’s achievement. They will present – and are already presenting – this to their society in such a way as to support mobilization and to give hope to those who support aggression. But the fighting continues. The Donetsk direction is holding out. And we do everything, without stopping for a single day, to strengthen Ukrainian defense,” the President said in his evening address.

As reported, Serhii Cherevaty, Spokesman for the Eastern Group of Troops of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, denied the statements made by the Russian military about their alleged capture of the town of Soledar, Donetsk region.
