Photos: Zelenskyy visits troops as Putin hails Russian resolve

Al Jazeera  

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited the eastern city of Bakhmut, the scene of some of the most intense combat since Russia invaded the country. Russian President Vladimir Putin also hailed the “courage and self-denial” of his forces in Ukraine, but he did so at a ceremony in an opulent and glittering hall at the Kremlin. Capturing Bakhmut would sever Ukraine’s supply lines and open a route for Russian forces to press on towards cities that are key Ukrainian strongholds in the province. At the Kremlin ceremony, on a holiday honouring Russia’s military and security agencies, Putin presented awards to the Moscow-appointed heads of four regions of Ukraine that Russia illegally annexed in September. Putin also called on counterintelligence officers to step up efforts to “derail activities by foreign spy agencies and quickly track down traitors, spies and saboteurs”.
