Step by step, the soldiers are liberating our land: since the beginning of the operation, 160 square kilometers and seven settlements have been cleared of the occupiers, and more than 170 square kilometers and nine settlements have been cleared of the occupiers.

Zelensky also announced a significant replenishment of the exchange fund.
Our exchange fund has been significantly replenished — there are already almost a hundred Russian prisoners, there will be more. Russian losses only since the beginning of our counter-offensive operation, only in the Pokrovsk area, only in these weeks — already more than two and a half thousand, of which more than 1,300 Russians have been killed.
Ukraine is quite rightly defending its positions, its land. This is a heroic defense. I am proud of our soldiers, proud of our people.
