Russian invaders moved closer to Lisichansk, but could not cut off the city from the communication lines. The Russians also tried to attack Slavyansk, but failed.
The situation in Lisichansk is now very difficult. No wonder the head of the Luhansk regional military administration called on all locals to evacuate. This is reported by the American Institute for the Study of War.
Kafirs are trying to completely capture Lisichansk
Russian troops advanced southwest of Lysichansk on June 27, but have not yet completely cut off Ukrainian land lines to the city, the report said.
The Russians had partial success and advanced west of Volchoyarka in the direction of the T1302 Lysichansk highway – Bakhmut. And this is only 5 kilometers south of Lisichansk. The Institute believes that they are unlikely to seize the track yet because of the resistance of Ukraine in Verkhnekamenka.
The occupiers are also consolidating their positions in the southern territory of the Lisichansk oil refinery and firing artillery at the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine around the Lisichansk gelatin factory.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian defenders repelled Russian attacks north of Podlesne. Propaganda telegram channels lie that the invaders established “fire control” along the Ukrainian lines of communication in Lysichansk on the Seversk – Belogorovka road.
The Russians made an unsuccessful attack on Slovyansk
On June 27, Russian troops carried out unsuccessful offensive operations north of Sloviansk,” the institute writes.
Head of the Kharkiv regional military administration, Oleg Sinegubov, said that Ukrainian troops resisted the Russians in Mazanovka and Dolyna along the E40.< /p>
According to the think tank, the Russians will most likely have to abandon their intensive advance in the Lugansk region in order to resume the offensive north of Slovyansk. Russian troops did not attempt to carry out a ground assault on the settlements in the area of Slavyansk or Seversk from the side of the Liman.
