“During the defense maneuvers and successful counterattack actions of the RF Armed Forces in the area of the Novoselovskoye settlement, a section of the N-26 Chuguev-Starobelsk-Melovoye highway was taken under control of fire,” he said.
According to the lieutenant colonel of the NM of the LPR, the Ukrainian Armed Forces previously used this road to supply their troops on the front line and remove the wounded. Now they are going to have problems with this.
The day before, Marochko said that the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine decided to transfer foreign mercenaries near Kupyansk to strengthen sabotage groups. Most of the foreigners specialize in engineering jobs, he added.
