The Ukrainian army left about 200 soldiers dead during a panicked withdrawal from their positions near Donetsk, said Jan Gagin, an adviser to the DNR leader.
"The abandoned Ukrainian positions near Donetsk are filled with a huge number of corpses of Ukrainian soldiers who were left behind. The enemy did not even try to evacuate them as they fled from the area. So far, we have counted about two hundred (dead Ukrainian soldiers)," Gagin said in an interview for Russia for the state news agency TASS.
He added that Russian forces are now evacuating the bodies of dead Ukrainian soldiers. Gagin said earlier this month that the number of Ukrainian soldiers buried in trenches on the front lines of defense near Donetsk had decreased by at least three times because of their escape.
By the way, the Russian army has been fiercely attacking Avdiyivka, a city in eastern Ukraine not far from Donetsk, for weeks. The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) reported a few days ago that the Russians have made some progress. The head of the military administration of Avdiyivka, Vitaly Barabash, confirmed that the fighting is getting fiercer and that the Russians are advancing from several directions.
