Ukrainian troops had to pull back from the town district known as “Kanal” in besieged Chasiv Yar, Donetsk.
According to Nazar Voloshyn, Khortysya Operational Command spokesperson, the move was forced as the Russian bombardment destroyed the Ukrainian defensive positions ‘endangering’ the soldiers’ lives.
“Our positions were heavily damaged. Commanders decided to withdraw to stronger and better-prepared positions,” stressed Voloshyn adding the Russian army units have allegedly a deadline for Chasiv Yar’s capture that makes them intensify the offensive.
‘They have been trying to take Chasiv Yar for months now without success. What they try is to raise their tricolor flag there.”
Ukrainian forces reportedly tried to counterattack at “Kanal” town district in late June.
A kamikaze drone flies directly toward an armored personnel carrier. But instead of penetrating the hull, it explodes on a steel screen. The crew survives. This is the new reality for Ukrainian forces, who have received enhanced protection thanks to the Metinvest project within “Steel Front of Rinat Akhmetov”.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.
Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
