The liberation of Lyman of the Donetsk region opens the way for the Armed Forces of Ukraine to deoccupy Donbas.

In addition, this fact also has a significant psychological impact on the Ukrainian military.

The speaker of the Eastern Group of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Serhii Cherevaty, told about this on the telethon "Edyny Novyny".

He explained that Lyman's release 

will continue the Kharkiv operation

 of defenders of Ukraine.

After all, after such successes, the troops are usually always in a high state and "go for courage".

In addition, having "taken" Liman, the Armed Forces captured an important area that opens

the gate to the liberation of Donbas

.

All because the direction to Svatovo, Kreminna and Severodonetsk opens further.

Cherevaty noted that the de-occupation of the city is also 

an important psychological moment.

After all, the Ukrainian fighters managed to surround a large group of the enemy, who had previously flaunted his invincibility.  

The representative of the Armed Forces also drew attention to the fact that professional Russian troops fought in Lyman.

In particular, it is about "Bars" - combat army reserve.

"Our troops did not break some "mobs" there, but a very powerful defense. And this increases the price of our efforts even more," explained the speaker of the Eastern Group of the Armed Forces.

We will remind you that on October 1, the Armed Forces entered Liman, Donetsk region, and unfurled the Ukrainian flag there.

The invaders are on their heels from the city.

The information that the defenders of Ukraine are already in Liman was also officially confirmed by the Armed Forces.

It was reported there that fighting was going on outside the city.

The defeat of the occupiers in Lyman was even recognized by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

They said that the Russian command was forced to withdraw troops to "more advantageous positions".
