Quote: "I received a report from Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Mykhailo Drapatyi. Particular focus was on the defence of Kostiantynivka, Sloviansk, and the Donetsk region as a whole. I am grateful to all units that are fully carrying out their combat missions, repelling Russian assaults, eliminating infiltration attempts, and systematically destroying the occupiers. We understand how to reinforce this sector."
