The Russian Defense Ministry said earlier in June that Russia's Tsentr (Center) group of forces took their tactical position and defeated units of the 24th mechanized brigade of the Ukrainian armed forces and the 109th brigade of the territorial defense forces in the areas of Toretsk and Novgorodskoye. The advance of Russian troops in this direction will also reduce the intensity of the Ukrainian shelling of the city of Gorlovka. The General Staff of the Ukrainian armed forces said late Wednesday that "the situation in the Toretsk direction is tense." Vadym Filashkin, the Kiev-appointed head of the Donetsk regional military administration, announced in a televised appearance on June 25 that "the evacuation will take place in a very forced manner from the city of Toretsk."
