In addition, 80,000 fighters of the "private military company" (PMC) led by Russian oligarch Yevgeny Prigozhin have been injured.
"The elimination of such a powerful force and such a large number of mercenaries in the east is also a counteroffensive. It is a serious foothold for our forces to move forward. When someone says that the Ukrainian military started on the 1st, 4th, or 10th day - we started earlier and did lots of things," he stated.
According to Zelenskyy, Ukrainian soldiers have destroyed a "real fist" of mercenaries "who are the most motivated part of the Russian Army" in Ukraine's east.
