In the Luhansk region, the Ukrainian army has “big problems” near Severodonetsk and Lisichansky, said the adviser to the office of the President of Ukraine Alexei Armalovich.
According to him, Russian troops plan to close the tactical environment around the cities of Zolotoy and Gorskoye.
The question of whether the troops should be withdrawn until the ring was closed, Armovich replied that the decision was making the military command. “But I, having completed the tasks of exhausting the enemy, took the troops to a new line of defense,” he said, noting that the Armed Forces of Ukraine probably have “some kind of plan” in the current situation.
