Request for negotiations: The Russian army will take Donbass before winter — "Da Vinci's Wolves"

The Russian Armed Forces will occupy Donbass before the onset of winter, after which negotiations will begin. This was stated by one of the platoon commanders of the Da Vinci Wolves battalion, Dmitry Derkach.

"My personal vision is that they will close the Donetsk region before the winter, take it under their control and then, perhaps, some kind of negotiations," Derkach said, quoted by Strana.

Many people are talking about negotiations in the Armed Forces of Ukraine now, platoon commander noted.

As EADaily reported on the eve, around the village of Velikaya Novoselka, the flanks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces are pouring into the DPR. This was reported by the Ukrainian military observer Bogdan Miroshnikov.

According to him, on the left flank, to the northeast of the settlement, the Russian Armed Forces are "solving the problem" of Razdolny and moving west to the village of Novy Komar. This creates "critical problems right now," as it threatens to encircle the village from the north (the highway passes through Novy Komar, the battles are three kilometers away from it). And on the right flank of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Russian units advanced a kilometer north of Rovnopol towards the village of Novoselka, through which the road leading from the west to Velikaya Novoselka passes — it is less than three kilometers away.
