Quote: "At the moment, we are holding the line. There is always a threat of encirclement and breakthrough. But we are pulling up reserves, we are reformatting, we are inflicting losses on the enemy. Every day they lose 300-400 people killed and injured and a lot of military equipment.

That's why we can't talk about any real threat of encirclement at the moment."

Details: At the same time, Shtupun said that in the area of Robotyne, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, Ukrainian troops have captured two large groups of occupants of about five people each over the past three days.

"They surrendered not only with joy, but almost without a fight. Two of our servicemen captured a much larger group of occupants. Morale in that area is generally broken and they are ready to surrender without much of a fight. One group just surrendered ‘on sight’, so to speak: several shots were fired in the air and they surrendered," said the spokesman.
