"Today I held a regular meeting of the Chief of Staff - we discussed many issues. The key is our actions on the front line. In Donetsk and other areas. Particular attention is paid to Bakhmut. Our defense, the occupier's attempts to surround the city and break our defense there. We are countering them. And I am grateful to every soldier who ensures this counteraction with their resilience!
Today at the Staff Meeting we also discussed the supply of ammunition to our soldiers. Artillery is one of the key factors. As usual, the Commander-in-Chief and the commanders of the directions reported. The head of intelligence reported on the occupier's current plans.
We are also strengthening our management positions. In a number of regions, especially in the border and frontline areas, we are appointing leaders with military experience. Those who can prove to be most effective in defending against the current threats. I will inform you about each such decision.
Today I have heard reports on the situation in Odesa and the region, including those related to the aftermath of the power accident. All services and officials who should be involved are working. Repair work has already yielded part of the required result, and generators and power equipment are being delivered to the region and the city. As of now, there are blackouts in a large part of Odesa region. We are doing everything to provide people with electricity," Zelenskyy said.
