Taras Berezovets, an officer of the first separate special brigade named after Ivan Bohun, said that there are units mobilized from the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republic, as well as parts of the Russian army on the right bank of the Dnieper River.
“There are no Buryats left on the right bank of the Dnieper River, there was their brigade of airborne assault troops, which lost 60% of its personnel. Now there are units of the so-called Luhansk and Donetsk People’s Republic or units from Russian regions – Pskov paratroopers and the like.”
According to the soldier, the total number of the entire group on the right bank of the Dnieper River is up to 20,000 Russian servicemen.
“They are actually in an operational encirclement. There were more of them, but they managed to abandon the left bank. When trying to cross the Dnieper River, the enemy will be destroyed, because all the crossings, and every meter of the Dnieper River are shot by HIMARS. We must let the Armed Forces of Ukraine finish their work without haste, without pushing and demanding immediate results.”
