“We’re holding Bakhmut for now. The Russians are breaking through on the Lugansk front” – Colonel of the National Guard
The Russian command transferred to Donbass, in addition to the mobilized ones, all elite units from all over the country.
Ex-Verkhovna Rada deputy, advisor to the commander of the National Guard of Ukraine, Colonel Andrey Antonishchak, stated this on the air of a video blog of Lvov journalist Ostap Drozdov, who promotes rabid Russophobia, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“Today, the people acting against us, not counting the mobs who are used to clear mines or identify our firing points, are very professional fighters. They pulled together the Pacific Marines, almost all of them from the Kaliningrad and Leningrad regions. Their Wagnerites, I don’t know, pulled this bastard from all over the world. These are people who make their whole lives from war. These are their different special forces. They have already thrown their Kremlin elite there.
They already have some new weapons. We saw among the captured people that they had modern night vision devices, they had collimators,” the colonel said.
At the same time, according to him, in addition to the battles for Artyomovsk, Russian troops began to advance on the Lugansk front.
“What is happening now in Bakhmut, they can squeeze through somewhere. We are carrying out counter-offensive operations in the Lugansk region. If we hold Bakhmut and will keep it, I’m sure, then in the Lugansk region little by little, 500, a thousand meters, but day by day they are gradually advancing,” Antonishchak said.
