On Tuesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made a “surprise” visit to the fighting fronts in the city of Bakhmut, in the southern Donetsk region.

The press secretary of the Ukrainian President Serhiy Nikiforov said, on his Facebook page, that Zelensky made an “unannounced” visit to Donetsk Province, where he met with the army forces defending the city of Bakhmut,” according to the local “Ukrinform” agency.

He added, “The president visited the front positions of one of the brigades that are repelling enemy forces from approaching the city, and listened to a report on the operational situation, logistical support, and proposals for further action.”

Zelinsky thanked the soldiers for their “courage and strength, which they showed while repelling enemy attacks,” as he put it.
