Lysychansk Battle Raging, Major Ukrainian Losses, Says Russian Media
Russian state owned media and pro-Russian social media are recording major engagements South of Lysychansk. Although Ukrainian Luhansk Governor Haidai said more than 13 hours ago that major operations have not commenced, never before seen combat footage may show that Russian Ground Forces are on the move near the Lysychansk Oil Refinery. This footage claims to have been shot South of Lysychansk where a Ukrainian 10th Mountain Brigade column was engaged by Russian artillery. A majority of the column was knocked out and Russian paratroopers picked through the bodies once Ukrainian infantry retreated.
