According to Oleksiy Dmytrashkovsky, a spokesman for the joint press office of the Ukrainian Defense Forces, the Russian forces have drastically scaled back their offensive and assault activities in the direction of Vuhledar compared to last week.
“The adversary has considerably slowed down. The Russians are no longer capable of mounting significant offensive operations. The adversary only succeeded in two attacks today, hardly an offensive, “added he.Dmytrashkovsky claims that the Russians attempted to approach using a motorized rifle squad that lacked heavy or armored equipment. That behavior is referred to be “suicidal.” There are also instances where a force is sent to the assault with armored vehicles but no ammo.
According to Dmytrashkovsky, attacks by the Wagner mercenaries have decreased recently. The residential areas are still being shelled by Russia.
Dmytrashkovsky claims that last week, close to Vuhledar, the 155th Naval Infantry Brigade of the Russian Pacific Fleet was nearly totally annihilated.
