“Our first fighters of the Ilovaisk group – 28 people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs battalions “Peacemaker” (14), “Kherson” (3) and “Dnepr-1” (11) - came out of encirclement to the strong point of the National Guard brigade advanced to the forefront in Komsomolskoye. With them are several people from the TRO battalions of the Moscow Region. No wonder they held the line all night! In total, about a hundred fighters reached our positions overnight (28 from volunteer battalions just now and guys from the Defense Ministry),” Ukrainian Interior Minister Arsen Avakov said on his Facebook page.
“This is not the same group that held the defense near Chevonopilye - it’s different. We are waiting for the rest of the guys!” – the minister clarified.
In turn, the commander of the Donbass battalion, Semyon Semenchenko, said that negotiations on removing fighters from the encirclement near Chervonopolye are continuing.
As Navigator reported, yesterday the fighters of the combined group were trapped in Chervonopolye after trying to leave Ilovaisk. According to them, a trap was specially prepared for them: the commanders never gave orders on how to act.
