“The enemy is dropping manpower every night.” The Defense Forces reported on the situation near Chasovoy Yar and Toretsk

Anastasiya Bobovnikova, spokeswoman for the operational-tactical group Luhansk, reported on the situation in these areas of the front as of Monday, November 4, on the air of the One News telethon.

“We see that the enemy is amassing its forces in the area of ​​responsibility of the Luhansk OTU,” said Bobovnikova, adding that recently the enemy stormed their positions in the Siversky direction with the help of equipment, however, thanks to the cooperation of Ukrainian units, the occupiers lost about ten tanks and more than ten combat armored vehicles.

In the directions of Chasovoy Yar and Toretsk, the enemy attacks the defenders with small assault groups, but without success. However, the Russian Federation is accumulating equipment. According to Bobovnikova, the situation in the Toretsk direction is stable, the enemy does not stop its assaults, but there is no success.

“Even more, we can counterattack and repulse some of the enemy’s positions. Thanks to the work of the units, we do not allow them to advance,” Bobovnikova emphasized.

Accumulation of enemy forces is also recorded in the area of ​​Chasovoy Yar. However, OTU Luhansk denies the information that the occupiers have advanced or gained a foothold there.

“The enemy is hoarding their resources, yes, they are making wishful thinking come true. We will try to counter them as much as possible. So far, they attack in small assault groups, but we see that every night they transfer manpower to advanced positions, as well as prepare equipment, equip it with EWs, transport BC and weapons. In this way, they accumulate their reserves near the Chasov Yar,” said the spokeswoman of the Luhansk OTU.

According to Bobovnikova, the enemy has an advantage in manpower. The Russians are promised “gold mountains” for signing the contract, but many of those who were taken prisoner in the area of ​​responsibility of the Luhansk OTU claim that they did not see these payments at all.
