Situation in other directions

Recently, we have seen the activation of a large number of unmanned aerial vehicles. The enemy is carrying out certain reconnaissance activities, – said the adviser to the minister.
At the same time, enemy shelling of border settlements periodically takes place in the North. In general, the situation remains stable.
Why the sands are important
- We have heard about the Sands throughout the Russian-Ukrainian war since 2014. After all, this village is a suburb of Donetsk, and it is right next to it that the notorious Donetsk airfield is located.
- only 5 people left.
- In early August 2022, in the midst of a full-scale Russian invasion, propagandists like Seminyany or Kadyrov began to claim the “capture” of Peskov.
