Ukraine resists ruthless attack by russian troops in the east. We need weapons, Zelensky says

In the eastern region, russian invaders are trying to attack; in some places, the enemy dominates with equipment and the number of soldiers.

Rubryka reports, citing a video address by President Volodymyr Zelensky.

"The Armed Forces of Ukraine, our intelligence, and all those who defend the state are resisting the extremely fierce offensive of russian troops in the east … In some places, the enemy strongly dominates with equipment and the number of soldiers.

The russian authorities have made a landmark decision; they have allowed hiring older people on a contract. They no longer have enough young people, but the desire to fight remains.

It still takes time to discourage them. We still need the help of partners, especially weapons for Ukraine. Complete assistance, without exceptions, without restrictions, is enough to win," he said.

Earlier, Zelensky warned that the following weeks of war would be difficult for Ukraine.

On May 25, Defense Ministry spokesperson Oleksandr Motuzianyk explained that the situation on the eastern section of the front was very dynamic, with the Ukrainian army maneuvering.
