According to him, the Russian command threw "Wagnerites" into battle, for example, in the Popasnyansky direction.
A group of fighters of the private military company (PMC) "Wagner" was liquidated while trying to capture the positions of the 58th separate motorized infantry brigade named after Hetman Ivan Vyhovsky.
This was announced by the chairman of the Luhansk OMA Serhiy Gaidai.
According to him, the Russian command threw "Wagnerites" into battle, for example, in the Popasnyansky direction.
"They were attached when Russian troops stood still for weeks and could not capture even a small town. The other day they tried to encroach on the positions of the 58th separate motorized infantry brigade named after Hetman Ivan Vyhovsky, which had defended the Luhansk region for several years. The mercenaries attacked the positions of the 58th "And also from the air. One of the Su-25 pilots, who was hired by a private Russian military company, fired at our guys with unguided rockets for several days in a row. Until he was landed," Gaidai revealed the details.
According to him, now this group of Wagner PMCs has been completely liquidated - the bloody "business" of these Russians burst yesterday.
On July 18, British intelligence noted that the Wagner PMC must have played a central role in recent battles, including the Russian capture of Popasna and Lysichansk in the Lugansk region. These battles inflicted heavy losses on PMCs.
