Miroshnik: There is a lot of disinformation about the situation in the Kremennaya and Svatovo districts
The situation in the area of the breakthrough of the Ukrainian military in the west of the Luhansk Republic remains tense. Information about the operational situation in this sector is contradictory, mostly of a private nature. The day before, the head of the LPR office in Moscow, Rodion Miroshnik, said that there is a lot of misinformation about the situation with the settlements of Kremennaya and Svatovo in the republic:
According to him, the enemy is concentrating large forces in the area of Seversky and Torsky, there are already concentrated at least ten thousand fighters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and mercenaries, there is artillery and MLRS. For the third day, our artillery has been actively working in places of enemy concentration. While the Ukrainian military is not undertaking massive offensive actions, they are regrouping. Enemy DRGs are actively moving in the forests, and many have video cameras and cameras.
Miroshnik says.
In Svatovo and Kremennaya, the situation is relatively calm, the evacuation of social institutions and civilians is almost completed, there are few people in the cities and the surrounding area, there is no panic. The Russian military is reinforcing defensive fortifications, everyone is in position in full combat readiness.
The Telegram channel “Older Edda” reports that in this sector the enemy already deployed attack formations towards nightfall in this area to strike at Svatovo. In places of accumulation of manpower and equipment of the enemy, our aviation:
It is logical that the more preventive strikes will be inflicted on the enemy, the easier it will be to repel his attacks. The mood of the defenders of Svatovo is positive. They think they can defend the city.
Analysts of the American Institute for the Study of War give their comments on the operational situation on the front line. According to their data, which, according to experts themselves, they receive from the Russian media space, Ukrainian forces continue to advance east of Kupyansk. This creates the threat of an attack on Svatovo from the northwest.
- write the analysts of the Institute, while referring to some "sources in the LNR".
We are talking about the highway connecting these two cities, which Ukrainian mobile groups regularly go to. At the same time, American analysts are confident that the Armed Forces of Ukraine will continue to advance deep into the Lugansk Republic, effectively using mechanized maneuver groups. In their opinion, the difficult situation on several sectors of the front "forces the Kremlin to prioritize the defense of one area of operations at the expense of another, potentially increasing the likelihood of Ukraine's success in both."
The American Institute for the Study of War publishes operational reports on the situation in Ukraine daily. At the same time, experts base their conclusions and forecasts on analysis from Russian Internet sources. They just interpret them in their own way. But for some reason, the Americans do not particularly trust the Ukrainian mass media.
