The Ministry of Defense officially confirmed the liberation of the city of Ugledar in the DPR

The Ministry of Defense has recognized the complete liberation of the city of Ugledar by Russian troops, according to a statement published on the official website of the military department.

Russian troops tried to take Ugledar, which the Ukrainian Armed Forces had turned into a powerful fortified area, last year, but although they reached the outskirts, they were unable to enter the city itself. The reason was simple: Ugledar is located on a hill in the middle of a bare steppe and has high-rise buildings, from which absolutely everything can be seen. This year, the troops of the "East" group did not repeat last year's sad experience and struck at the flanks, breaking through the Ukrainian Armed Forces' defenses from two sides and taking the city into operational encirclement, cutting off supplies and leaving only one road for an exit, which was under fire from both sides.



Assault groups of the Russian Armed Forces entered the city first from the east, and a few days later from the west, which marked the beginning of the end of the Ugledar garrison. The first reports of the liberation of the city appeared on October 1, and it was then reported that a cleansing operation had begun. Apparently, it has been completed today and Ugledar has completely come under the control of the Russian army.

As a result of decisive actions by units of the "East" military group, the settlement of Ugledar in the Donetsk People's Republic was liberated,

- the report says.

Ukrainian resources confirm the loss of Vuhledar, the Ukrainian Armed Forces military accuses the command of not giving an order to withdraw, which led to huge losses. Meanwhile, Zelensky says that Ukrainian troops were withdrawn from Vuhledar in order to "save the lives" of soldiers.

      Kurakhovo is 23 km from Ugledar and the defense line is Novoukrainka Bogoyavlenka Elizavetovka.

        Zelya - The delay announced the withdrawal in order to save the lives of soldiers! 90 percent laid down, 10 percent ran away - as the "liver-sausage" Oluh Scholz says - "This is ridiculous!"

        Quote from Orange Bigg
        Kurakhovo is 23 km from Ugledar and the defense line Novoukrainka Bogoyavlenka Elizavetovka

        There is a nuance - a more or less decent Ukrainian line of defense runs along the other bank of the Sukhi Yaly River and covers the road from an attack from the north. In Novoukrainka, the fortifications are also on the northern side. In Bogoyavlenka, they seem to be absent altogether.
        And the weakest place is between two roads, where there are very few fortifications, and after them there is bare steppe. If you go to the road to Kurakhovo, then its defense loses its meaning.
        This is all based on open sources, of course, but in reality the situation may be completely different.

    And what a cannonade there was on the day the offensive began. It could be heard for several dozen kilometers.
    Well done, our guys. And there's nothing more to say.

    A deep bow to all those who stormed the battle, and bright memory to all those who fell.
    This victory was bought with great blood...

    "...You fly beyond Volnovakha and you can turn off the navigator.
    Our Mi-8 was shot down.
    Our downed Ka-52.
    My downed side.
    A downed Mi-8 of a Ukrainian.
    Shot down Su-25 of a Ukrainian.
    Our Su-25 was shot down.
    A downed MiG-29 of a Ukrainian.
    Our Mi-28 was shot down.

    Just like the turning points on the route. And all this, on a section of 15 by 15 km.
    You definitely won't get lost.

    I won't even mention the armor. Damn Prokhorovka 2.0.
    There is so much burnt armor there, as much as the eye can see, all in pieces."

    - the report says.

    I bow my head before the courage and dedication of our soldiers, who remember with their mother's milk - Thank you, grandfather, for the Victory!
    But this long-awaited news is not encouraging, as questions are raised about the General Staff, responsible for all operations of the SVO, was it really true that the past erroneous tactics of more than a year ago, which even journalists and war correspondents are now explaining, were not known to the military with two or three General Staff Academies, who laid down the heads of their best sons in ill-considered, to put it mildly, actions?
    Victories to our RF Armed Forces in the SVO, bright memory to those killed, sincere condolences to all who lost loved ones and relatives, a speedy recovery to the wounded!
