In recent days, Russia has strengthened a sector of its front line near Kreminnaya in Luhansk region.

This city is under constant pressure from Ukrainian forces.

The British Ministry of Defense announced this on Twitter on December 28.

It is noted that Kreminna has been relatively vulnerable since Ukrainian forces launched a large-scale counteroffensive in October and advanced through the city of Liman to the west.

According to British intelligence, Russia has built major new defenses near the city and is likely to give priority to holding the front line here.

This district has important logistical importance for the Donbas Front of Russia, and is also an important city of the Luhansk Region.

The British Ministry of Defense adds that the "liberation" of this territory was the main justification for the war for the Kremlin.

We will remind, the head of the Luhansk OVA, Serhii Gaidai, said that the Russian army is withdrawing a huge amount of reserves and equipment to the Kreminna district of the Luhansk region.

At the same time, the occupiers die there by the hundreds during heavy fighting.
