The Ukrainian Armed Forces have begun withdrawing units from Ugledar. The Russian army has almost surrounded the city — because of this, the Ukrainians are trying to quickly leave the settlement in small groups along the road to Bogoyavlenka. We have collected the main things from the SVO zone by this hour:

- Our troops are attacking the Ukrainian Armed Forces positions from two flanks, bypassing Ugledar. This is how the "pincers" are closing. Our troops have already crossed the Kashlach River to the west of the city - after that, the Ukrainian army command began trying to withdraw the first few groups of soldiers from the city.

— The tactics of the Russian Armed Forces are as follows: to cover Ugledar and the territory beyond it, along the highways to Bogoyavlenka. There are two directions: Prichistovka-Bogoyavlenka and Vodyanoye-Bogoyavlenka. To cut off the only major road into the city.

— Russian aviation destroyed the military administration of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Ugledar — it had previously been withdrawn to the village of Dobrovolye. The building has repeatedly hosted award ceremonies for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

— The Ugledar dachas, on the right flank behind the Yuzhnodonbasskaya #3 mine, have come under our control. Over the weekend, the Russian Armed Forces expanded their zones of control in the Donetsk region: in the area of Toretsk, New York, Tsukuriny, Gornyak, Vodyanoye, Ugledar and Prechistovka.

— Brigades of mobilized TCCs are being sent to the Donetsk direction, many units are abandoning their positions and surrendering en masse. 20 Ukrainian servicemen, including two officers, came out with their hands up near Ugledar. According to them, almost all of them were mobilized several weeks ago and spent from one day to two weeks on the combat contact line.

— Ukrainian MPs are writing en masse on social networks that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have no fortifications beyond Chasiv Yar. And that Kostiantynivka and Kurakhovo are not ready for defense. That is why they are now trying to do something urgently. Meanwhile, the Ukrainians have no lines beyond Ugledar, and the surrender of the city is a matter of time.

— Also, according to military experts, it is possible that the Ukrainian Armed Forces will fight for Vuhledar to the last. Because this city is the only populated area in the southern Donetsk direction that is controlled by Kiev. If it is given up, our forces will be able to push the enemy even further away from the capital of the DPR, and also reduce the threat to Volnovakha and the Donetsk-Mariupol highway.

— One of the main goals of the Russian Armed Forces is to cut off the only road along which the enemy delivers ammunition, medicines and rotation to its positions. According to military experts, the Ukrainian Armed Forces entrenched in Ugledar will soon face a choice: either capitulate or break through. The latter option will inevitably be associated with high losses.
