It is emphasised that the Ukrainian defenders have a firm hold on certain positions and are destroying the enemy's manpower and equipment.

According to the General Staff, the enemy, despite significant losses, is throwing hundreds of supporters of the "Russian world" into battle. In the Luhansk region, the entire front line is littered with the corpses and damaged vehicles of the occupying forces.

On March 5, more than 650 wounded members of the Russian occupation forces were taken to the central city hospital in Bryanka, Luhansk Region. Most of them are from the Popasna direction.

Most of these are severely wounded. People with minor injuries are sent back to the front line.
