Ukraine’s U-turn on Bakhmut Zelensky said on Sunday that Russia has no occupation of the city of Bakhmut. Russian military occupation of Bakhmut was denied on Sunday. It also casts doubt on Moscow’s claim that Russia has occupied the city in eastern Ukraine.
“As of today, there is no Russian occupation of Bakhmut,” Zelensky responded to a journalist’s question about the city’s status at a meeting of the G-7 grouping in Hiroshima, Japan.
