'Earlier, the occupiers managed to proceed with mass offensives due to a significant advantage in artillery. However, the destruction of enemy ammunition depots made it much more difficult for them to replenish arms stocks and maneuver. Throughout July, the occupiers have only been trying to storm Donetsk region. One such attempt was prevented yesterday near Verkhnokamyanske. Our troops exposed the reconnaissance group in a timely manner, inflicted fire damage on it, forcing the unit to retreat,' Haidai informed.
