[ColonelCassad] An important tactical achievement of our troops.
As a result of joint assault actions, the servicemen of the 336th Separate Guards Naval Infantry Brigade and the 37th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade of the 36th Army liberated the settlement of Komar - a large defense and logistics hub of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the South Donetsk direction, prepared and equipped with fortifications, well protected by a natural water barrier and surrounding buildings.
After long and stubborn battles, it came under the control of the "Vostok" group, becoming an important step towards the liberation of the Donetsk People's Republic.
A defense area of ​​4 km by 3.5 km was taken under control. Our soldiers installed Russian flags in various parts of the settlement. The Far Easterners are consolidating their positions.
As a result of the military actions, more than 1,100 buildings were cleared.
The Far Eastern "Express" of the "Vostok" group picked up speed and is breaking into the Dnipropetrovsk region at full speed. Our guys continue the offensive, breaking through the enemy's defense, demoralizing him and leaving the Nazis no chance!
Thus, the Russian Armed Forces are already quite close to liberating the DPR territory south of the Krasnoarmeyskaya agglomeration.Also liberated today were - Yablonovka (Sumy region), Orekhovo (South Donetsk direction, near the border of the Dnipropetrovsk region) and Koptevo (northeast of Mirnograd (Dimitrov). Judging by the pace of advancement, the May record for the liberation of territory will be confidently broken in June.
