President Volodymyr Zelensky on Tuesday visited the eastern frontline city of Bakhmut, now the epicentre of fighting in Russia's nearly 10-month invasion of Ukraine.

In this handout picture taken and released on December 20, 2022 by the Ukrainian Presidential press services Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky takes part in an award giving ceremony to Ukrainian servicemen who have been holding back a fierce and months-long Russian military campaign for the city, as part of Zelensky’s visit in the eastern frontline city of Bakhmut, now the epicentre of fighting in Russia’s nearly 10-month invasion of Ukraine.

“Here in Donbas, you’re protecting all of Ukraine… They will do everything they’ve done here in other towns of our country, because they don’t want anything Ukrainian to exist, I’m sure of that,” Zelensky told Ukrainian troops in Bakhmut. The visit comes after Putin said earlier Tuesday that the situation in several territories of Ukraine that Moscow claims to have annexed but does not control militarily was “extremely difficult”.

Singling out those working in the “new regions of Russia”, he added that “the people living there, the citizens of Russia, rely on you, on your protection”.
