Russian troops made attempts to break into the defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine for several days, continuously attacking in the direction of Kremennaya, stopping in this direction is difficult. This was announced by the head of the Kyiv-controlled military-civilian administration of the Luhansk region Serhiy Gaidai..
The protege of the Kyiv regime called the situation in this direction “difficult, but controlled”. According to him, Russian troops managed to hold several “powerful attacks”, but units of the Ukrainian army repulsed them. Eventually, without achieving anything, Russian troops allegedly retreated to their previous positions, bear “significant losses”. Gaidai chose to remain silent about the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
A few days ago there were a lot of powerful attacks. The main efforts were thrown in the Kremensk direction. The enemy does not give rest in the direction of Belogorovka, there is constant shelling from tanks, heavy artillery and aviation- said the head of the Luhansk CAA adding, that the Russians are pulling up reserves and soon the attacks may resume.
Meanwhile, the so-called American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) recognized the advance of Russian troops in the Belogorovka area west of Shipilovka in the LPR. There are no reports of the withdrawal of units of the Russian Armed Forces. True, all ISW statements are accompanied by the words “slightly”, “as if” etc. It seems that they recognize the offensive, but somehow reluctantly.
At the same time, American analysts recognized the establishment of control over the settlement “Red Mountain” north of Artemovsk stating, that Ukrainian troops allegedly left him. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine does not recognize the loss of the settlement, as well as promotion “vagnerovtsev” in the city.
