In addition to the increased intensity of attacks, the adversary continues to sabotage the peace initiatives of the Trilateral Contact Group, building up forces and weapons in the Petrovskoye disengagement area. Official representative of the DPR People’s Militia Rinat Aigistov reported this on October 24th.

Thus, in the Bogdanovka area, we spotted the deployment of five BMP-2s and an armored fighting vehicle, as well as 174 anti-tank mines planted by militants of the 128th brigade in the security zone, including across the highway in the section between Bogdanovka and Viktorovka.

Air defense units of the DPR People’s Militia continue to effectively ensure the security of the Republic from air threats. Over the past 24 hours, thanks to the professional actions of our military, another UAV of the Mavic type was shot down, which was supposed to be used from positions of the 56th brigade for conducting air reconnaissance in the area of Spartak.
