Ukrainian Armed Forces deny another fake about Kurakhove
The media is spreading information that Ukrainian troops are semi-encircled in Kurakhove. However, this is not true, says the spokesman for the Khortytsia military unit Viktor Trehubov on national TV.
Trehubov said that, according to his data, as of the morning, the Ukrainian military held their positions at the TPP and inflicted the maximum damage possible on the Russian troops.
“We cannot confirm the information about any semi-flooding,” he emphasized.
Throughout the day the media has been spreading information that the city is still partially controlled by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, but Ukrainian defenders are already in a semi-circumscribed situation.
Earlier today, Trehubov spoke about the situation in the city. More details can be found in the RBC-Ukraine article.
Earlier, Oleksandr Kovalenko, a military and political observer of the Information Resistance group, expressed the opinion for the RBC-Ukraine YouTube channel that the Ukrainian Armed Forces would have to withdraw from Kurakhove, but by that time the Russians would be severely depleted.
