March 23, 2023

Retired Lt. Col. of the People’s Militia of the Lugansk People’s Republic Andrei Marochko said that Ukrainian security forces in the direction of Kupyansk were carrying out engineering work, endangering civilians.

“In the area of ​​the Golubovka settlement in the Kharkiv region along the Oskol River, the construction of new fortifications and the digging of trenches have come to light. In addition, Ukrainian militants are actively exploiting the area,” said he wrote on his Telegram channel.

Marochko also noted that Ukrainian Armed Forces militants practically do not place mine danger signs when operating roads along which civilians move.

The day before, it was reported that the Ukrainian units in the direction of Kupyansk, after an unsuccessful attempt to counterattack, decided not to save their wounded colleagues from the battlefield and left them to die.
