Andriushchenko said that the day before, the occupiers had conducted sudden counter-partisan activities in the city. According to him, they were aimed at removing the Resistance from the streets along the route of manpower transfer.

More than 20 trucks were recorded moving in organized two-column convoys on the route Russia - Novoazovsk-Mariupol-Nikolske-Rozivsko-Pologivska agglomeration or Vremivsk direction.

You can now see with your own eyes the absence of tactical markings on the trucks, which proves that a new offensive is being prepared, the location of which the Russians have not yet determined. It will depend on the readiness of our Defense Forces
