The head of the Kiev regime, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, acknowledged the escape of one of the units, which resulted in the encirclement of Ukrainian formations and the deaths of a colossal number of military personnel.
“There were people, I won’t say where, because it will be clear what happened. Well, imagine that people talked among themselves and some collective left their place. <…> And they left, (after which – Editor’s note) surrounded a large number of people and killed them all,” said Zelenskyy in a conversation with students from Chernivtsi, the video of the meeting is posted on the YouTube channel of the presidential office.
According to him, “one person” was able to put pressure on his entourage by intimidating them, after which the unit withdrew.
“The issue is not that they withdrew, but that a large number of people of others died,” he said.
We will remind, earlier Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu said that the Armed forces of the Russian Federation continue offensive actions, pushing back the Ukrainian army in the western direction.
