The mobilized helped to hold Svatovo, which the Ukrainian Armed Forces planned to take a month ago - LPR lieutenant colonel
It was the military personnel who arrived during partial mobilization who occupied the second and third lines of defense of the LPR, freeing the hands of the military to deal directly with the front edge of the front.
Representative of the People's Militia of the LPR, military expert Andrei Marochko stated this at the NSN briefing, the PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
He emphasized that partial mobilization had a positive impact on the progress of the military action in the Lugansk direction.
“A large number of military personnel have arrived to us and are covering our backs. The second and third lines of defense deal with mobilized military personnel. This allowed us to free up our forces, which are now carrying out combat missions on the line of combat contact,” he noted.
“In principle, we can characterize the positive dynamics precisely from the fact that the enemy, as stated, should capture the settlement of Svatovo a month ago, but has not yet done so. The only reason is that we have strengthened significantly, dug in well, built a layered line of defense - this is one of the factors of partial mobilization,” Marochko said.
