"Ukraine may be losing between 50-100 lives in the east every day," President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said during a press briefing on Sunday, APA reports citing BBC.

He said those killed were defending Ukraine in “the most difficult direction”.

Zelenskyy did not elaborate further but the comments appear to be a reference to military losses and are a sign of how fierce the fighting is in the east.
