Zelenskyy said those defending Bakhmut — a city that Ukraine has repeatedly described as a "our fortress" due to it being heavily fortified — and the surrounding area were "real heroes" and that Kyiv was trying to ensure its forces have as many weapons as possible there. She said Russia was employing the tactics of "exhaustion and total destruction" but said that Russian forces were experiencing significant losses, losing between 600 to 1,000 people daily, she claimed. She added that Ukraine's forces were conducting defensive operations in the face of the "numerical superiority of the enemy."Anadolu Agency | Anadolu Agency | Getty Images
