The situation near Verbove
Near Verbove, Ukrainian defenders conducted a series of operations that prevented the enemy from establishing reinforcement groups and launching full-scale assault operations.
"We did not allow the enemy to establish reinforcement groups, we did not allow them to conduct assault operations there, and, in turn, we reduced this gray zone ourselves," Voloshyn explained.
