Zelenskyy: Russia fails to advance, keeps up pressure on all fronts
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Russia isn’t making real gains on the front, though the pressure is still on everywhere. He called the sabotage in Pokrovsk and attempts to get into the Dnipropetrovsk region more of a PR win for the Russian military than anything else

He said this during a meeting with journalists on July 24, reports Suspilne.
"For them, conditional success is the Dnipropetrovsk region. Because this can be used to score informational victories. The situation there is the same as in Pokrovsk. They enter the field. It doesn't matter whether they entered there or not: there is no living soul there, no one is standing there. The military are standing by and destroying everything they can. I believe that Sumy remains of interest to them, the Pokrovsk direction remains, and they really want the Dnipropetrovsk region," the head of state said.
At the same time, according to him, the Ukrainian military has managed to improve the situation in the Sumy region over the past month.
- On July 24, 174 combat clashes took place on the Russian-Ukrainian front. In the Pokrovsk direction, Ukrainian defenders repelled 57 Russian assaults.
