The authorities reported that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are building fortifications along the Ingulets River near Snigirevka

Barbashov said this in an interview with RIA Novosti.

"Currently, along the entire line of the right bank of the Ingulets River, Ukrainian armed formations are erecting long-term structures," he stated.

In addition, the agency's interlocutor added, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are building facilities in several settlements of the region.

According to him, the Ukrainian army is preparing a long-term defensive line.

As Barbashov recalled, such plans were intended to be implemented by the German fascist command in 1944 at the same place.

In January, the chairman of the movement "We are together with Russia" Vladimir Rogov said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are building fortifications in the Zaporozhye region and are preparing for defense.
