The Russian Defence Ministry has reported that it had intercepted a cipher with the order of the commander of the Ukrainian National Guard with the plan for preparing an offensive in Donbas
Igor Konashenkov, an official representative of the Russian defence ministry, said this during a briefing.
The order details the plan for the preparation of one of the strike groups for offensive actions in the zone of the so-called “combined forces operation” in Donbas.
“I especially want to draw your attention. All nationalist combat readying activities have been ordered to be completed by 28 February. So that in March 2022 they can start carrying out combat tasks as part of the Ukrainian ‘combined forces operation’ in Donbas”, – Konashenkov added.
