(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Russian invaders have destroyed 70% of Rubizhne town, Luhansk region, but the Ukrainian military holds the defense.
“The defense of Rubizhne is unbreakable… Russian troops have demolished about 70% of the town by airstrikes and heavy shelling. The Ukrainian military holds the defense and actively destroys the enemy's offensive equipment and infantry,' Head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration Serhiy Haidai posted on Telegram .
The heavy fighting in Rubizhne has been going on since March 18, 2022, he noted. During this period of more than 5 weeks, Russian propagandists have repeatedly declared victory and a complete 'cleansing' of the city, but the defense of Rubizhne is steadfast.
