Quote: "A new unit has arrived [on the Vuhledar front – ed.] – the 136th Brigade, which had once been deployed for the war against Chechnya. As of today [27 February], they have appeared in sight on the Donetsk front, and by the 5th [of March] they will 'take over' the defence line to be held."
Details: At the same time, he added that Russian forces have reduced their activity on the Vuhledar front over the past four days. In total, they carried out 15 assault attacks on 26-27 February, although a month ago there were up to 60 such attacks per day.
As Dmytrashkivskyi states, this is due to both the weather conditions that do not provide for the movement of military vehicles and the massive resistance of the invaders to go on the offensive.
