According to Pushilin, when the “re-cleansing” is over and the military will give a certain signal, “the next stage will be the units of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.”
After that, the headquarters will begin to provide assistance to the liberated territories.
Pushilin also said that the Sol railway station in the Soledar area came under the full control of the Russian Armed Forces.
The headquarters of the territorial defense of the DPR confirmed the liberation of Soledar by Russian troops.
