Title: Zelensky: The Fall of Artemivsk Will Give Russian Forces the Opportunity to Expand

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated in an interview with the Al Arabiya television channel that "the authorities of our country cannot allow the fall of Artemivsk, as that would help expand the front and give Russian forces and Wagner the opportunity to seize more of our land." It is noted that Artemivsk is considered an important logistical center and a crucial transportation hub for supplying the Ukrainian forces in Donbas. This city has been experiencing fierce battles for several months, during which Russian forces have managed to control most of the neighborhoods and all the main roads leading to it.
