Ukraine War: Zelenskyy denies claim that Russia has taken control of Bakhmut

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said Bakhmut is not occupied - after Russia claimed control of the city following months of fierce fighting that has left it in ruins.

He said Ukrainian troops remained in the besieged eastern city, where he likened the devastation to that inflicted on Hiroshima in Japan following the dropping of the atomic bomb in 1945.

[ELLISRUGER]

Great to see that 99% percent of the comments see this man for what he is! A gutless liar who is brave with other people's lives. This war need never have happened. The USA has used Ukraine as a pawn in a geopolitical game.

[livelife]

He’s such a weezly little man, I’m sick of the sight of him. He’s loving all the attention he’s been getting since the war kicked off.

[BritishEngineer]

Why should people trust this man, whilst not even the world will trust him with fighter jets.

[glintongordon]

They denied azovstal surrender, they denied snake island surrender, they denied soledar and now they deny bakhmut

[robertyoung]

ZELENSKY HAS BEEN IN DENIAL SINCE THE START, ONCE A COMEDIAN ALWAYS A COMEDIAN.

[AndreSetal]

[HKsolo-oqsq]

He loves world peace but refused to mourn the atomic bomb victims in Hiroshima 🧐

[albertchanakira]

I suspect this script was written by Uncle Joe himself 😅

[allykid]

Zelenski: "Give me your money, weapons and Bakhmut will be ours!" "Ok, we've received your aid, thanks!" "Bakhmut is in our hearts, give me your F16s now." Wtf?

[ws]

Tell me how the tanks are working out?

[gram.]

So obviously Russia has taken Bakhmut.
