BBC: The retreat of the Ukrainian Armed Forces from Vugledar was chaotic
A machine gunner of the 72nd brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) spoke about the chaos during the retreat from Vugledar. His words transmits BBC.
“If the withdrawal is not organized, it turns into chaos. Either you die or retreat,” said the machine gunner. According to him, some units were left without communication, which is why, when they came under fire, they made their own decisions to retreat.
It is noted that the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ defensive lines in the city were destroyed by Russian aerial bombs, drones and multiple launch rocket systems.
Earlier it became known that the 72nd brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which was holding Ugledar, left the city without orders. An anonymous machine gunner from the 72nd Brigade told the BBC that in recent days, Ukrainian soldiers had to get out of Vugledar on foot on their own, since it was impossible to evacuate them in any other way.
