Pushilin denied statements about the capture of the Ukrainian Armed Forces of Andreevka (Andriivka) near Artemovsk (Bakhmut)

Acting head of the DPR Denis Pushilin denied statements from Kyiv about the alleged capture of the village of Andreevka near Artemovsk by Ukrainian troops: fierce fighting continues in the area of ​​​​Kleshcheevka and Andreevka, there is an improvement in positions by Russian units.

“The statements of Ukrainian propagandists about the capture of the Andreevka Higher Federal District are just another hoax. At the moment, the situation is as follows: fierce battles continue in the area of ​​​​Kleshcheevka and Andreevka. But over the past 24 hours, on the contrary, although small, there have been improvements in positions by Russian units,” Pushilin told RIA Novosti .

“In essence, the recent situation in the Avdeevka direction is being repeated, when Ukrainian military personnel themselves believed in a fake about the capture of the Ukrainian military unit of this settlement. They went to consolidate positions and found themselves under fire from our First Army Corps,” added the head of the republic.
