The Russian military tried to break through the Ukrainian defence in the Svatove area using heavy equipment, the Head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration, Serhiy Hayday, said on Telegram.
According to him, the situation in the region is difficult but remains stable and under control.
Russian invaders are constantly trying to advance in the Kreminna area. The occupiers also tried to use heavy equipment to break through our defences in the Svatove area near Kuzemivka and Novoselivske but failed.
Hayday noted that even though the Russians have already engaged significant forces in these areas, sometimes the assaults are up to three infantry companies.
Earlier, Russians tried to storm positions near Kreminna and Bilohorivka.
