"Together with Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Lieutenant General Serhiy Shaptala, we conducted work in the groups of troops that perform the most difficult tasks in the areas where the fiercest battles are going on," Zaluzhny posted on Facebook.

Zaluzhny said that the enemy tries to obstruct the advance of Ukrainian units. For this purpose, the Russian troops deployed a system of fortifications with dense minefields and a large number of reserves.

"Despite the furious resistance of the occupiers, our soldiers are doing everything possible to liberate Ukrainian territory. The operation continues according to the plan," said the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

As reported, the Russians amassed troops and try to advance in Lyman and Kupyansk directions. In addition, the enemy concentrated a significant number of air assault units in the east.
