"We withstood and successfully repelled enemy attacks. The fighting continues. In many cities and districts of our state. But we know what we are defending. The country, the land, the future of our children. Kiev and key cities in the capital are controlled by our army. The invaders wanted to block off the center of our state and put their puppets here, as they did in Donetsk. We disrupted their plan. - Volodymyr Zelensky addressed the Ukrainians.
