The offensive of the DPR and the subsequent clearing of Marinka will protect residents of the outskirts of Donetsk from the barbaric shelling by Ukrainian armed forces that has resumed with renewed vigor.
This is stated in the story of the press service of the People's Militia of the DPR, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
It is noted that the operation to liberate the settlement was organized, first of all, in connection with the incessant shelling from Maryinka of the village of Aleksandrovka, the Tekstilshchik microdistrict and the Petrovsky district of Donetsk.
“The situation is difficult, but solvable. Our troops are advancing, they have entered the outskirts of Marinka, and we are now clearing the streets of these Nazis. Now we will move forward, Marinka will be completely cleared, and then Aleksandrovka, Petrovsky district, and Tekstilshchik will be released from the attack.
They strengthened very well, they strengthened for 8 years. Meter by meter, but we are taking our lands, leaving no chance for them to stay here, they can stay, but only “two hundredths,” said a fighter with the call sign “Sedoy.”
The story also showed footage from a drone of DPR artillery firing at the enemy, destroying enemy equipment and strongholds with precise strikes. As a result, the Ukrainian armed forces were driven out of their positions, which were occupied by the defenders of Donbass.
“The Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the DPR made a promise to the residents of the city of Donetsk that they will soon stop hearing shell explosions. Accordingly, after we take and clear Marinka and two nearby villages, we will make sure that the Ukrainian Armed Forces, these fascists, do not fire at civilians,” says a fighter with the call sign “Java.”
The forces of the NM DPR fought their way into Marinka, “clearing the streets of Ukrainian nationalists and militants of the armed forces of Ukraine subordinate to them.” The liberation of the village will not only protect civilians of Donetsk from shelling, but will also secure the civilian infrastructure of the republic.
Let us note that, according to the press service of the DPR NM, during the clearing of Marinka, 9 Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers laid down their arms, and two received medical assistance.
“Street fighting in Marinka has been going on for four days now. We confirm the progress of our fighters in this direction - with the forces of the 100th Brigade and the Miner Division. With the assistance of “Sparta” and other units of the DPR NM,” reports military correspondent Semyon Pegov.
In addition, according to the head of the DPR Denis Pushilin, the offensive is also developing in the direction of neighboring Avdeevka and Pesok.
