The situation in the liberated Ugledar remains tense — the enemy continues shelling, the head of the DPR Denis Pushilin told reporters.
"The situation in Ugledare is still tense, the enemy is shelling Ugledare, he is trying to "snap back," so everything is still tense," Pushilin said, quoted by TASS.
As EADaily reported, the Russian Defense Ministry announced on October 3 that Ugledar had been released. This city is an important logistics point in the DPR, control over it will allow Russian troops to reach the next arc of defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Slavyansk and Kramatorsk, will throw the Ukrainian army even further away from Donetsk and reduce the number of attacks on Elenovka, the vicinity of Volnovakha. In addition, this will increase the pressure on the Kurakhovsky grouping of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, on the logistics hubs leading to the city of Zaporozhye, and in the future will allow to develop the offensive in this direction.
