Haidai announced this on the air of the telethon.

According to the regional head, the Russian forces prepared well to defend their positions in the Luhansk region.

"Our troops are a few kilometers away from Kreminna. I hope that by the New Year there will be news about the de-occupation of populated areas in the region," said the head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration.

Serhii Haidai is also convinced that weather conditions contribute to the rapid movement of military equipment.

The head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration also commended partisans who help Ukraine’s Armed Forces in the occupied territories.
