Quote: "On 30 October the units of the Defence Forces of Ukraine repelled the attacks of the Russian occupiers, specifically near the settlements of Bilohorivka, Mykolaivka and Novoselivske. Simultaneously, Russians have been continuing to launch attacks on settlements of the region using multiple types of weapons. Yesterday the villages on the Kupiansk and Lyman fronts were under attacks – Hrekivka, Kovalivka, Karmazynivka, Makiivka, Novoiehorivka, Nevske, Ploshchanka and Chervonopopivka."

Details: At the same time the aircraft of the Defence Forces of Ukraine launched 21 attacks on the occupiers,  with  15 of them targeting areas of  concentration of weapons and military equipment, 2 – on platoon strongpoints and 4 more – on positions of the Russian air defence systems.

The units of the Air Defence of Ukraine also shot down a Russian helicopter and a Su-25 attack plane.

Anti-aircraft and artillery units struck a Russian control point and an anti-aircraft system.

Haidai states that the occupiers are constantly claiming that the situation on the frontline is under their control but this is not true as they cannot even control what is happening to their rear.

Specifically in the town of Kreminna there is often no water, electricity and gas; and the store shelves are empty. Haidai adds that there are almost no food products in this town, a lack of  supplies, and prices are rising.

The situation in the city of Lysychansk is similar, but there the residents are at least receiving humanitarian aid. They are being provided with shipments of carrots and beetroots.

Haidai reported that 178 teachers from the occupied territories completed their retraining in the so-called "institute of professional development of the Luhansk state pedagogical university".
