Ukrainian 'Elite' Unit Pulls Back as Russian Troops Advance in Donbass

Russian forces continue their offensive in the Serebryansky forest area of Donbass, the commander of the Defense Ministry’s "Akhmat" special forces unit told Sputnik.

"The situation in this area is consistently tense. We have broken through the enemy's defensive line; now Russian troops are actively on the offensive, pushing out the enemy... Assault operations are currently underway," he said.

Ukraine’s "Signum" unit, described as an elite group of drone operators, withdrew after the initial Russian breakthrough, the commander noted.
