Since early September, they have advanced several kilometers, approaching the city's eastern outskirts
The dominant height in the northern part of the city with a television tower and multi-storey buildings, from which the approaches to the city are completely controlled, was captured by the enemy. These were not isolated SRGs — they were assault units from the 121st and 122nd regiments, the 27th brigade, and the 1855th battalion of the Russian Armed Forces.
