Intense urban fighting continues in Toretsk, Donetsk Oblast. Russian invaders are trying to break through the village of Shcherbinovka and seize a refractory plant. This was reported by the spokesman of the OSUV Khortitsa Viktor Tregubov on the air of the telethon. "Urban combat is a specific type of combat with very high intensity. In Toretsk, there are both urban combats and an attempt to break through Shcherbinovka. Recently, the 3rd assault repelled an enemy attack in Leonidovka and destroyed 9 enemy BMPs," the official said. According to the speaker, there are constant urban battles in Chasovy Yar. "The Russians are constantly trying to either break through and penetrate the Ukrainian positions behind the Seversky Donets-Donbass canal, or to break through to the architectural dominant of the city - the fireproof plant, but in the latter case they have never had any success, because it is physically difficult," the speaker added. It was previously reported that the Russian army loses an average of 500 soldiers per week of urban fighting in Toretsk. |
