Representatives of the press service of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation published footage of the broken opornik of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The stronghold of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the territory of the LPR was occupied by soldiers of the Central Military District. According to representatives of the press service of the Russian Defense Ministry, the motorized riflemen of the Central Military District managed to break through the echeloned defense of Ukrainian nationalists in the forest of the Lugansk People’s Republic.
According to them, the militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine began to hastily retreat at a distance of up to three kilometers from the lines they occupied after the offensive of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. At the same time, the nationalists of the Armed Forces of Ukraine did not have time to take the bodies of their colleagues and military equipment.
It is noted that the military personnel of the RF Armed Forces could not keep an even more fortified second line of defense of Ukrainian militants. In addition, during the retreat, the UAF militants tried to remotely mine the area with the help of mines produced by NATO countries. However, these anti-personnel bombs did not stop the motorized riflemen, who continued their advance.
Earlier, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said that NATO and the allies of the alliance do not consider themselves part of the Ukrainian conflict, but will continue to help Ukraine, which “defends itself.”
