Ukrainian soldiers are holding their positions but awiating an attack in Svitlychne village, south of the provincial capital of Luhansk in Luhansk Oblast.
According to Ukrainian military intelligence forces, thousands of Russian-separatist insurgents with heavy weapons arrived to Sokolniki, northwest of Luhansk and five kilometers from Krymske. Few people have stayed in Svitlychne and Krymske, including workers of a pumphouse in Svitlychne, which still supplies with water the areas of Krymske, Svitlychne and Tryohizbenka in Luhansk Oblast.
