The situation on Luhansk and Berdyansk

There have been increasing reports of explosions in the occupied Luhansk recently. For example, on September 25, there was a loud incident near Luhansk, and on social media, there were reports of the arrival of ammunition supplies for the Russians at the Yunost plant, which is involved in the production of radio and radio-electronic equipment.

In Berdyansk, Zaporizhzhia region, there are also frequent explosions, primarily in the vicinity of the airfield. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the occupiers have been using the airfield for accumulating their units and basing helicopters.
