The defenders of Ukraine in Donetsk region will receive support from the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Oleksandr Syrskyi. He visited units and subdivisions in the Pokrovsk and Kurakhiv directions and then reported this on his Facebook account.

Syrskyi also expressed gratitude to the Ukrainian defenders for their resilience and courage. According to him, the Ukrainian military has thwarted enemy plans and continues to hold back the enemy.
