"A lot of killed and wounded Russian soldiers": military observer Popovych on explosions in Melitopol

He expressed this opinion on Espreso TV. 

“There is an assumption that the explosions in Crimea are the work of our partisans. However, I would not separate the partisan movement from Ukraine's Armed Forces. Since they act in each other's interests. However, if we talk about the south, a lot is happening not only in Crimea, but also in the temporarily occupied territories of the Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions,” Popovych explained.

The military observer believes that Ukraine's Armed Forces continue the tactic of destroying Russian positions before liberating the occupied territories.

“Yesterday in Melitopol, the occupiers' barracks were attacked. Many Russian soldiers were killed and wounded. All this is combined in our usual tactics. Ukraine's Armed Forces destroy Russian defensive positions before liberating the territory. In particular, their barracks, headquarters and munitions depots are being destroyed,” he added.

• On December 10, Melitopol's mayor Ivan Fedorov reported that Ukrainian defenders had hit the occupying Russian forces in the city.
