The Russian occupiers do not stop trying to enter the administrative borders of Donetsk region.

Currently, intense fighting continues in the area of

​​Bakhmut

and Soledar.

The most difficult section of the front is the Donetsk direction.

Deputy Minister of Defense Hanna Malyar said this on the air of the telethon, writes RBC.

"We see that the epicenter of this week is Bakhmut and Soledar - in general, the Donetsk direction," says Malyar.

According to her, active defense is currently underway in the direction, and mutual movement of both sides is also taking place.

Malyar explains it this way: if the Russians advance, the Ukrainian army reacts and takes back control.

"It is happening so dynamically that when we summarize and analyze in a day, the main thing is that Ukraine does not surrender a single centimeter of land. But the process that is taking place is an active attempt by the enemy to reach the borders of the Donetsk region, the fighting there continues fiercely." - emphasizes the deputy of the Ministry of Defense.

Now the main task of the Armed Forces, says Malyar, is to stabilize the liberated territories and prepare for further offensive.

In addition, it is important to gain a foothold in the de-occupied territories.
