The enemy is shelling Ukrainian settlements and positions with artillery. Overnight alone there were 4 tank attacks and 4 air strikes.
According to the Luhansk Regional Military Administration, mobilisation measures were intensified in the occupied territories. This is due not only to significant losses of russians at the front line, but also to a lack of motivation to fight. Also, the military of the so-called “Luhansk People’s Republic” refused to follow orders on the territory of the “fraternal people” – “Donetsk People’s Republic”. The invaders complain of threats, harassment, blackmail and fallacy.
Head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration, Serhii Haidai, said that explosions at warehouses and military bases in the occupied territory of Luhansk oblast are happening more and more often due to the “russian carelessness”, as they themselves claim. He noted that this significantly reduces the number of artillery attacks and makes it more difficult for russian troops to advance deep into Ukraine.
