"In the east they [the Russians] are moving forward and losing a lot of pele. It's just an extraordinary number. They don't care about it. […] But we don't have exact numbers. There are much more casualties from their side. But from what we have already seen and counted, there are thousands of pele dead from their side, and they are just throwing them, and throwing them, and throwing them and throwing them," Zelensky said.

He also he was "very thankful" for the tanks but warned that the number and timing of their delivery was "critical."
