Russian military takes control of Levadnoe in Zaporizhia region
Levadnoe is located between the city of Gulyaipole and the village of Velyka Novosyolka. Parts of the Eastern Army took part in the battle for the village.
In the Zaporizhia region, Russian troops took control of the village of Levadnoye. This was reported by the Ministry of Defense.
The report says: "Units of the Vostok division liberated the village of Levadnoye in the Zaporizhzhya region and took up more advantageous positions."
According to the Defense Ministry, over the past 24 hours, Vostok fighters have struck personnel and equipment of three Ukrainian Armed Forces brigades in the areas of Dobrovolya (DPR) and Temirovka (Zaporizhia Oblast). "The enemy's losses amounted to 120 servicemen, one armored personnel carrier, four vehicles, a 155-mm self-propelled howitzer "Bogdan" and a French-made CAESAR," the Defense Ministry reported.
Since the beginning of this year, the Russian Ministry of Defense has reported the capture of dozens of settlements in the DPR, the largest of which is Avdiivka.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky also said in early October that the situation on the front line was “very, very difficult.” He has repeatedly said that the only way out of the conflict is negotiations based on his “peace formula,” which includes the withdrawal of Russian troops to the 1991 borders. Moscow has repeatedly ruled out such a possibility.
In the summer, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Russia was ready to negotiate with Ukraine on the condition that Ukrainian troops withdraw from Donbass, Zaporizhia and Kherson regions, that these regions and Crimea are recognized internationally as part of Russia, and that Kyiv refuses to do so. join in. He said that this had been done. NATO and international sanctions were lifted.
After the Ukrainian invasion of the Kursk region, the head of state declared that negotiations with those who "seek to indiscriminately attack civilians and civilian infrastructure or pose a threat to nuclear facilities" are useless. Moscow ruled out negotiations until Ukrainian troops are driven out of the region.
