Pushilin said this in a video published by Telegram.
“Around Ugledar from the south, from the southwest and even the western side of the dacha is now under our control, our units continue to develop the liberation of Ugledar itself,” he said.
The head of the region added that the process is not going fast due to the transfer of reinforcements of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
“Everything is quite complicated, because the enemy has transferred a brigade of marines, it has reinforced the units remaining there, these reserves have already been transferred in fact.
We will definitely manage, but it took a little time, ”he added.
Earlier, Pushilin's adviser Igor Kimakovsky said that the Russian armed forces had taken Ugledar into the semicircle.
