The Russian military operation in Ukraine continues, as units of the Russian army extend full control over the liberated areas and strike the positions of the Ukrainian forces.
And Lieutenant Colonel of the forces of the Donetsk People’s Republic, “Andrei Pavsky”, announced today, Thursday, that the Russian forces have fully taken control of the western part of the city of Solidar.
Pavsky, a deputy in the parliament of the Donetsk Republic, said that the process of clearing the city continues, noting that “there are still separate small pockets of Ukrainian military personnel in Solidar.”
“At the moment, there are still some separate small pockets of resistance in Solidar, our men continue to crush and drive the enemy out of these places. In general, the operation has developed successfully and the western suburbs of Solidar are already completely under our control,” he said.
* The importance of controlling Solidar
Pavsky pointed out, “The importance of controlling Solidar, in terms of isolating and dispersing the Ukrainian forces. This means cutting off all logistical supply routes for the Ukrainian Artymovsk group and cutting off all possibilities of providing it with personnel and ammunition.”
And Pavsky emphasized that “controlling Soledar means, in fact, seeing the road from Slavyansk to Artemovsk with a direct vision, and the possibility of shelling it with artillery fire directly.”
He pointed out that following the loss of the city of Solidar, the Ukrainian forces had to transfer the weapons that they had previously used to bomb Donetsk, to the direction of Artemovsk.
* Zelinsky is at a dead end.. There is nothing good on the front
The advisor to the former President of Ukraine, Oleg Soskin, commented on the Russian forces’ control of the western part of Solidar, saying that “Kyiv no longer has the strength and armament to maintain its positions following the Russian army took over Solidar,” pointing out that “there is nothing good on the front.” “.
Soskin said on his YouTube channel: “In the event that Solidar is abandoned, it is necessary to withdraw from Bakhmut. And the tanks!… These are all promises… There are no heavy tanks, missiles and artillery for long and unexpected distances.”
He added: “You must be truly frank. There will be no weapons for Ukraine in the coming months, and the Russian pressure is increasing. Ukraine no longer has the strength to withstand this pressure.”
Soskin believed that Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky and his government have pushed the country to a dead end through their decisions and continue to destroy the younger generation, sending them to the front lines.
