Koksohim, there is a lot of pressure there, but the situation, although difficult, is stable. The only success of the Muscovites in this direction was a few weeks ago, they reached the fence and were successfully eliminated. After this, the enemy has no successes, not even hints, this depends, of course, on our defense forces. Therefore, coke plant is completely under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, of course, it is being shelled and attacked by air constrictors, it is constantly under fire from MLRS and artillery, but the plant is under our control 100%,” he noted.
