The head of state also discussed the frontline situation with the military — measures to strengthen key directions, in particular in Donetsk.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said that part of the important personnel decisions in the military have already been prepared and announced a continuation of the changes. He said this in a Telegram post on Monday, 10 August.
The head of state said he held a meeting attended by the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Mykhailo Drahpaty, the Chief of the General Staff Ihor Skybyuk, and the acting Minister of Defense Yehor Hmara.
“We addressed important military issues today. We discussed personnel proposals. Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Mykhailo Drahpaty, in cooperation with Ihor Skybyuk and Yehor Hmara, proposed a vision of changes. Part of the decisions are already prepared, there will be more decisions,” Zelensky wrote.
He also informed that he discussed with the military the frontline situation — measures to strengthen key directions, in particular in Donetsk.
“I am grateful to all units that achieve tangible results in defending our positions and destroying the occupier in the areas of Sloviansk, Kostiantynivka, and Bakhmut. I am grateful to the air assault troops of the Ukrainian Armed Forces for their active actions in the designated areas — we agreed on steps that could give our troops greater operational capabilities,” the president noted.
According to him, the meeting also discussed the implementation of the plan of long-range sanctions against Russia, as well as mid-strikes. Zelensky said that part of the operations were adjusted and new ones approved.
An important topic of the meeting was air defense and the needs for protection of frontline and border towns and communities, regional centers, and Kyiv.
“I expect from Ukraine’s diplomatic team exactly those results in ensuring our military capabilities that are objectively needed. The topic of air defense for Ukraine should be at the top of the attention of every leader, every state that can help,” Zelensky summarized.
As a reminder, over the past day at the front there were 254 clashes. The Russian forces most heavily attacked the Kostyantynivka and Lyman directions.
It was also reported that in the past day 9 August Russia suffered on the front nearly 1500 soldiers killed and wounded.
