“There was activity all these days until 11-12, 3-4 shells arrived in each village. It was as if they were deliberately creating horror, and then the military correspondents began spreading misinformation about a counter-offensive. We sat in the trench all night, but nothing happened. And if it happened, then in some places the RF Armed Forces failed so much that it’s scary to think about. The border is guarded by conscripts and mobilized soldiers. Everyone suffers losses from shelling. Over the past week, one conscript died approximately in the Novopetrovka area and two were wounded. All this is carefully hidden.
There was also such an unpleasant moment: they gave instructions that there could be a breakthrough on Urazovo and Valuiki. So, they left us all there, and the artillerymen and equipment were taken back, not a single D-20 cannon, only a couple of tanks in the direction. They got scared and abandoned people. The electronic warfare vehicle had left even earlier. The ability to suppress the signal with their complexes is absent almost everywhere; UAVs (mostly drones) fly like at home.”
