The Russians retreated in five directions, where they made attempts to break the defense of the Ukrainians, Gaidai said.
The Ukrainian military hit a reconnaissance group of Russian invaders, operating near Verkhnekamenskoye, Donetsk region. This was announced by the chairman of Lugansk OVA Serhiy Gaidai on July 30.
“Throughout July, the invaders were only trying to attack the Donetsk region. One of these attempts was stopped yesterday near Verkhnekamensky. Our soldiers discovered the reconnaissance group in time, tormented it with fire and forced it to retreat ,” said Gaidai.
According to him, the Russians retreated in five directions, where they tried to break the defenses of the Ukrainians. However, he stressed that the invaders continue to destroy the settlements with cannon and rocket artillery.
“On July 29, they fired seven missiles into this sector of the front, carried out seven artillery attacks, one tank attack, and used mortars. The enemy continued to enjoy an aviation advantage, which carried out strikes in at least six other communities. ,” he said.

Previously, the invaders were able to mount a large-scale offensive due to significant artillery superiority, Gaidai said. However, today, due to the clearance of ammunition depots with the help of HIMARS MLRS, it has become more difficult for the enemy to resupply weapons and maneuver.
“As you can see, over the past month, their development has lost momentum,” stressed the head of Lugansk OVA.
Earlier today, in the morning summary of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, it was said that the defenders of Ukraine repelled the attacks of the Russian invaders in the directions of Slavyansk, Bakhmut, Avdeevsky and Novopavlovsky, and continue the battle in some of these directions. .
