The Ukrainian Defense Forces are in full control of the city of Myrnohrad in the Donetsk region and its surroundings.
According to Ukrinform, the Operation Task Force "East" reported the news on Facebook.
“The enemy is not in Myrnohrad. The situation in the city and its surroundings is fully controlled by the Ukrainian Defense Forces,” the statement said.
The group notes that their spokesperson made a mistake during yesterday's national telethon, referring to the situation in the city of Pokrovsk.
As reported by Ukrinform, Captain Hryhorii Shapoval, spokesman for the Operation Task Force "East", said on television that Russian troops had broken through to the outskirts of Myrnohrad in the Pokrovsk sector, where fierce street fighting was ongoing.
