Russia seems to be reinforcing a portion of its front line as Ukraine edges closer to recapturing a key city in the Donbas, Britain's Ministry of Defence said on Wednesday.
In recent days, Russian forces in Luhansk have likely reinforced positions in the strategically important Russian-controlled city of Kreminna in the eastern Luhansk region, theRussian and Ukrainian forces have clashed recently around the small city, which is located near to Sievierodonetsk and Lysychansk—two larger, industrial cities that were seized byUkrainian tanks enter the liberated city of Kupiansk on September 28, 2022.
"Russia has constructed extensive new defences in the area and will likely prioritise holding the line here," the MOD said. The report notes that the area is logistically important for Russia's Donbas front and it is also a significant town in Luhansk Oblast. "The Kremlin claims that the 'liberation' of this area is a core justification for the war," the ministry said.Find out more about the UK government's response:
