Pushilin: Allied forces in Artyomovsk moved from defense on the outskirts to active operations to occupy residential areas
Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, commenting on the Decree on partial mobilization, called the line of contact in the NVO zone a "front." Now this term can be used officially. The report contains some front-line details from military correspondents, official representatives of the Donbass regions and other informed commentators.
The head of the DPR, Denis Pushilin, said that the allied forces had moved from defense on the outskirts of Artemovsk to moving deeper into the city and occupying residential areas. The forces of PMC "Wagner" are at the crossroads in the eastern part of the street Patrice Lumumba.
To the south-east of Artemovsk, the Donbasskaya electrical substation was cleared, where a powerful fortified area of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was located. Now the forces of PMC "Wagner", operating in this area, are developing an offensive in the direction of Veselaia Dolina.
I have increased optimism in terms of the speed of the liberation of the territory (DNR), and in conjunction with the political decisions that are now being made, the situation will go according to a completely different scenario
Pushilin said on the air of the Solovyov.Live TV channel.
The enemy tried to attack in the Krasnolimansky direction in the settlements of Koroviy Yar, Novoselovka and Drobyshevo, but was stopped. To hold back another attack on Kr. Liman, our fighters generously mine the approaches, leaving "surprises" in the thick grass.
The alleged actions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Krasny Liman area: most likely, the Ukrainian formations will first try to take Drobyshevo, followed by access to Headquarters to encircle the city from the north. To pin down Russian troops, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will push through our defenses south of the city.

In the Soledar direction, Ukrainian troops managed to briefly break through the defenses of the RF Armed Forces in Berestovo. As a result of the counterattack, the Armed Forces of Ukraine were thrown back from the village. The settlement is completely controlled by the allied forces.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine managed to take control of the disputed north of Berestovoye. The fighters of the Wagner PMC were urgently rushed there in order to contain the further offensive and, if possible, return the settlement. Ukrainian formations are trying to push through the allied defenses and reach the Lisichansk Oil Refinery, and then to Lisichansk itself. So far without success.
In the Krivoy Rog direction, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is gathering forces for a further offensive on the positions of the Russian army near Lyubimovka and Arkhangelskoye. It is reported that Kyiv is transferring almost all reserves from the west of Ukraine, realizing that after the referendums it will be necessary to fight on the territory of a neighboring state, and Russia will adequately respond to such aggression.
