The DPR announced the imminent resolution of the issue with the environment of Lisichansk

“The issue of the environment of Lisichansk, I think, is a matter of the near future.

Although in war, forecasts are a thankless task.

But we have serious forces and guys there, ”TASS quotes him.

He also clarified that the issue of the encirclement of Severodonetsk by the forces of the DPR has already been resolved, but the military of the Armed Forces of Ukraine still remain in the industrial zone.

“As soon as the issue is resolved with these settlements, with this territory, I think it will be more fun in other territories, the same Kramatorsk, the same Artyomovsk,” Bezsonov added.

He also stressed that the military forces of the DPR always take into account the factor of the civilian population, so the advances are "confident, but slow." 

Earlier, the deputy head of the People's Militia Department of the DPR, Eduard Basurin, said that the military of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are desperately trying to avoid creating a cauldron along the line of settlements Artyomovsk-Lysichansk-Severodonetsk and are putting up serious resistance.
