For the last days Russian-terrorist troops continued to accumulate forces and means near the Debaltsevsky base.

About it on the page on Facebook the People's Deputy and the coordinator of Information Resistance group Dmitry Tymchuk wrote.

According to our data, on different sites of the base at the moment conduct battles of 5 battallion tactical groups (BTG) of the opponent (at least one of them is completed by the military personnel of the Russian airborne forces), and also 3 summary artillery groups. Besides, in this area the numerous small formations of terrorists which are armed separate samples of heavy infantry arms work. Total number of formations of the Russian-terrorist troops conducting battles for the Debaltsevsky base – about 2 500 people, to 35 tanks, about 50 BBM, to 50 units of barreled artillery (including SAU), and also at least 22 units of RSZO.

Around Debaltsevo the opponent after unsuccessful attempt of storm through Troitsk to Svetlodarsku, departed on initial positions and restores the level of fighting capacity. Transfer through Stakhanov to this area of replenishment of fighters is noted (to 12 units of automotive vehicles, generally covered army trucks, and about 18 units of armored equipment). Near Uglegorsk and in the direction the opponent continues to accumulate additional tactical reserves for the Svetlodarsky reservoir, keeping thus the considerable shock potential of the formations.
Commanders of divisions of the Russian-terrorist troops operating around N of the item Gorlovka received a task to prepare constant places of a dislocation for defense and the scheme of the organization of interaction "in the conditions of conducting combat operations around dense city building". To "places of a constant dislocation" of fighters the armored machinery which is planned to use for the organization of defense (for the last days - at least 6 tanks and about 4 BBM) is tightened.

The advanced mobile group of one of divisions of the Ukrainian troops near Dokuchayevsk from an ambush destroyed two mortar calculations of the opponent during promotion of the last on in advance equipped firing position.

Near the settlement. Alarm transfer about 20 units of armored machinery of the opponent (from them at least 5 tanks), within "stabilization of a site of Elenovk – Dokuchayevsk" where two days ago the mobile group of the Ukrainian troops made raid is noted.

As a result of an artillery attack of terrorists around N of the item of Avdeevk some objects of infrastructure are destroyed (in particular, the heating main is killed, some support of a power line are damaged). Already second day housing and communal services try to eliminate damages, however performance of these works is significantly complicated because of continuous attacks of terrorists by artillery. Blows of fighters to Avdeevsky coke-chemical plant, tram park, several multi-storey buildings down the street Municipal are also noted.
