Details: The special forces have published a short report about their fighters on this area of the front.

The Special Operations Forces confirm that a "scorched earth" policy is the invaders’ tactic.

Initially, the Russians tend to drop a large number of shells on a territory, regardless of whether there are Ukrainian troops or civilians there. In the east of Ukraine, the Russian occupying forces use all the weapons they have, wiping settlements off the face of the earth. Then they advance, bring up the artillery and continue the same tactics. At the same time, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have been continuing to take the punches in Sievierodonetsk.

Yet the Russian occupying forces can’t drive the Ukrainian fighters out of Sievierodonetsk, where battles are being conducted house by house, with the advancement of one side, then the other [Ukrainian or Russian military].
