“Debaltsevo cauldron: we are trying to occupy Nizhne Lozovoye, the loss of this settlement is already encirclement! The enemy... he has actually stopped counterattacking, is amassing troops in Artemovsk and Popasnaya, and apparently is assembling a relief group. Fighting is also taking place in Novolugansk and near Krasny Plowman. Despite the statements about surrender, the Red Plowman is ours, no one has driven us out of here as of this morning, although there were fierce attempts to do so,” the militias report on social networks.
The information that a battle is taking place in Uglegorsk - near Debaltseiv - is confirmed both by the rebels and at the ATO headquarters.
“After the shelling of Uglegorsk, already at 8.55, with the support of tanks and infantry, the militants attacked our positions in the area of this settlement. There is a battle going on there now,” the ATO press center said. The militias report battles directly on the central streets of Uglegorsk.
“At the moment, full control over the M-03 Artyomovsk-Debaltsevo highway has not been established, and without this it is too early to talk about a boiler,” says columnist Boris Rozhin.
As PolitNavigator reported, the coordinator of the medical service of the headquarters of the National Resistance, Ivan Zvyagin, said that The ring around the Ukrainian troops in Debaltseve is closing, the situation really threatens to turn into a new “cauldron”.
