Zelensky admitted serious difficulties in the counteroffensive “This is a difficult situation. I will be completely honest with you . The counter-offensive is not very fast,” the Ukrainian president said in an interview with CBS. According to him, the confrontation on the front line turned into an artillery duel. On each side, “40 thousand shells are fired every day.” At the same time, Zelensky said that the counteroffensive will continue even with the arrival of the autumn thaw. According to him, with the weather worsening and mud appearing, the Ukrainian Armed Forces will have to use drones or airplanes, “if the West supplies the latter.” As for the “successes” of the counter-offensive, the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces stated that the battles for the village of Kleshcheevka near Bakhmut continue. Although before this, the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Andriy Ermak, and after him, Zelensky, boasted about the seizure of this settlement by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
