Ukrainian Defense Ministry announces latest situation on frontline

The thirty-fifth day of the resistance of the Ukrainian people to the Russian military action has begun, reported from the Defense Ministry of Ukraine.

"Units of the 4th (Tskhinvali district, South Ossetia) and 7th (Abkhazia) military bases, which are part of the Southern Military District of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, were transferred from the occupied territories of Georgia to the territory of Ukraine in order to recruit the armed forces of the Russian federation.

"From the 4th military base, three BTGs with a total number of up to 1,200 Russian and Ossetian servicemen were formed and sent to Ukraine. Two units of the 7th Military Base were formed, which is about 800 people.

"In the temporarily occupied territories of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblasts, the enemy continues to commit illegal acts against the local population.

"In the temporarily occupied territory of the Luhansk region, the occupying authorities plan to hold another wave of mobilization from April 1 this year. It is possible that such efforts will be made in the recently occupied territories of the region.

"According to available information, the armed forces of the Russian Federation continue to have problems with staffing units. Thus, servicemen of the 26th Tank Regiment of the 47th Tank Division, who signed contracts after their participation in the war with Ukraine, began to submit reports requesting to terminate the contract and send them to a permanent location for further service.

"In the past 24hrs, the Joint Forces of Ukraine have repulsed four attacks by the Russians in the Donetsk and Luhansk areas. Our soldiers destroyed 7 tanks, 7 armored vehicles units, 2 vehicles, and an anti-tank gun. The enemy suffered casualties," General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said on Facebook.
