Currently, the settlement of Novomikhailovka is partially under our control. The other part, where the enemy is located, is under our important fire control,” said the brigade commander of the 79th brigade, which holds the lines in this area. According to him, Ukrainian forces hold 15-20% of the village.
On April 22, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced the capture of the village of Novomikhailovka south of Marinka in the Donetsk region, but, according to the UP, this statement is not true – the Defense Forces hold part of the village in the north.
Most likely, the Defense Forces are still holding positions at the dachas located across the Sukhie Yali River. This is the only part of the village designated as a “gray zone” on the DeepState map.
The rest of the settlement, both according to the UP and DeepState data, is already occupied by the Russians. Novomikhailovka as a settlement was completely destroyed and unsuitable for life.
