The 72nd brigade denied the complete capture of Vugledar. Two military brigades told Public that as of the evening of October 1, certain parts of the city were under the control of the Defense Forces, but most were under the control of Russian troops.
The brigade did not receive an order to leave the city,” the source said.
The DeepState project previously reported that Russian troops occupied Ugledar. Analysts made the publication, in particular, against the backdrop of videos published during October 1 by the occupiers’ public pages: these were footage of the Russian military raising flags on buildings in Vugledar.
Opposing the 72nd separate mechanized brigade in Ugledar are at least five brigades of the Russian Army. The Russians sent fresh and trained units to storm the city.
About this on air “Public. Studio,” said at 19.45 the commander of the unmanned systems battalion of the 72nd Mechanized Brigade, Andrei Nazarenko.
The enemy is pressing from all sides, has concentrated fresh forces, new brigades and continues to attack dozens of times every day. Well-trained teams, most importantly fresh. Our brigade has already destroyed nine brigades of the occupier. Today, according to our information, about five brigades are still fighting us. You must understand that our brigade is fighting, doing everything to hold on. And the enemy weekly brings new fresh troops, well-trained, tactically trained, trying, despite the loss of manpower and equipment, to get the Ugledar he so desires,” Nazarenko said.
He recalled that the brigade has been holding the defense for more than two years, the last six months under conditions of active assaults by the invaders.
He added that for success, the occupying Russian Federation massively uses “carpet bombing” with KABs and FABs, and strikes, “even knowing that there are several military personnel in this landing.”
Ugledar has been defended for more than two years by the 72nd separate mechanized brigade named after. Black Cossacks.
