Russian forces shell Luhansk region 13 times a day with artillery, launch 4 rockets, 2 airstrikes

Luhansk regional military administration head, Sergiy Gaidai, shared the news in his Telegram channel.

Russian forces intensified the work of subversive intelligence activities in the region. The Ukrainian Armed Forces neutralize Russian DRGs almost every day.

"No, the Russian army does not stop shelling. However, most likely, it conserves the existing stocks of projectiles, because their supply has been interrupted by the work of our new long-range weapons. Military warehouses in Kadiivka and Luhansk were recently detonated. Tonight there was also unrest in the industrial zone of Luhansk. Therefore, go ahead  the occupiers' DRG are coming again, trying to find weak points in our defense," he noted.

Russian forces are pressing not only from Lysychansk and Popasna, but also from the direction of Izyum. It is far from there to the settlements of the Luhansk region under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, but this threatens the large cities of the Donetsk region, and may disrupt or force the rebuilding of Ukrainian defensive fortifications. Sergiy Gaidai noted that such a danger cannot be ruled out.

"In addition, the enemy's air and artillery pressure does not stop in the areas of the administrative borders of the regions. In particular, in Verkhnokamyansk and Bilogorivka. In total, four rockets and two air strikes were carried out during the day. The artillery of the occupiers also does not stop destroying these and nearby settlements. On July 12, Russian forces used this type of weapon 13 times in the direction of peaceful residences," the regional head emphasized.
