Over the past day, they attempted one unsuccessful assault. Having suffered losses, they retreated to their original positions», – the statement said.
The statement highlighted ongoing activities, with occupiers actively conducting aerial reconnaissance, shelling settlements on the right bank with artillery, and employing various modified attack drones with destructive elements.
