The Russian president heard reports from commanders of the airborne forces and the 'Dnieper' army group and was briefed on the situation in Zaporizhzhia.
President Putin with Colonel General Mikhail Teplinsky and Colonel General Oleg Makarevich in Kherson regionPresident Putin's visit comes at a time when Russia's New Year offensive has been grinding on with little success, as Ukrainian forces mount a fierce defence of Bakhmut.
Kremlin troops are stepping up their use of heavy artillery and air strikes in the city, the commander of Ukraine's ground forces said on Tuesday. Meanwhile, anticipation has been growing ahead of an expected counteroffensive from Ukraine in the spring. Kyiv's armed forces, bolstered by dozens of Western-made tanks promised over the winter, are expected to try to replicate hugely successful offensives in Kharkiv and Kherson last year that saw swathes of territory liberated.
