The head of the defense department stated that the situation in the settlement was very complicated but controlled. According to Reznikov, a mercenary from the Wagner group fought on this section of the front, who organized the attacks of "wave behind the wave", which led to a large number of losses in the enemy's ranks.
Despite this, the head of the Wagner oligarch Yevhen Prigogin does not pay attention to the loss, trying to prove that his militants are fighting better than a regular Russian army. "(Wagner group) should provide any evidence to say that they are better than the regular armed forces of the Russian Federation," Reznikov said.
According to the minister, for Russia, every achievement on the front will have extremely symbolic importance, since in recent months the Russian armed forces have been in a series of failures, given the escape in the Kharkiv region and the surrender of Kherson. Also, the head of the Ministry of Defense voiced daily losses of opposing parties. According to him, Russian militants lose about 500 to 600 people daily, while the losses of the Armed Forces are only a tenth of this figure.
At the same time, the minister stressed that this data could not be verified independently. We will remind, the Deputy Minister of Defense Anna Malyar reported that as of the morning of January 13, the fighters of defense forces continue the defense of Soledar. According to her, fierce battles continued in the city at night, and in all areas of the Donetsk front the invaders maintain high intensity of the offensive.
