Russian occupying forces will fail to capture Chasiv Yar in the Donetsk region before the sacred date of May 9. The aggressors have already thrown all their resources into this direction, according to Oleh Kalashnikov, an officer of the press service of the 26th artillery brigade named after Roman Dashkevich.
"They can't reach any higher. They have already fully engaged all resources in our direction, throwing everything they can to find our weakness and break through our defense," he said.
The spokesperson expressed confidence that the Russians will not be able to capture the town of Chasiv Yar before their sacred date of May 9.
"They won't be able to do more, they won't succeed before their next sacred date, and they will have to come up with a new date and postpone deadlines again to keep their electorate hopeful," said a representative of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
