Quote from Zaluzhnyi: "We have succeeded in stabilising the situation. It is difficult, tense, but completely under control.
An important factor that contributed to our holding of defensive lines and positions is the timely arrival of M142 HIMARS, which have been used for targeted strikes on enemy control points and ammunition and fuel depots."
Details: Zaluzhnyi noted that he was keeping his American colleague informed about the operational situation, as is traditional.
The commander-in-chief added that on the eve of the meeting of the Ukraine Defence Contact Group, he and Milley had synchronised the requests of the Ukrainian side.
