Fighting is taking place in the urban area near Toretsk, a press officer for the 32nd Separate Mechanized Brigade said on air at Radio Liberty.
We are talking about the settlements of Severnoye and Zheleznoye, which are closely adjacent to Toretsk itself, said Alexander Bordian. The military man says that the operation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region has not yet had any impact on the military actions in the Toretsk direction. Instead, the Russian army has increased the density of KAB strikes. Russian sabotage and reconnaissance groups can also penetrate through the fighters’ observation posts, but they are detected.
