At least 167 injured, many killed near Debaltseve – battalion commander Semenchenko

The commander of the 'Donbas' battalion and parliamentarian Semen Semenchenko (Samopomich Party) has said that 167 Ukrainian soldiers have been injured near Debaltseve.

"By now, 167 injured have been moved to Artemivsk. Many of those dead were not removed. I do not know the total number. The Ukrainian Armed Forces, the National Guard, police, volunteers," he wrote on his Facebook page on Wednesday.

The situation not only in Debaltseve but in other hotspots such as Savur-Mohyla, Ilovaisk and Donetsk airport, is an attestation not of the enemy's superiority but the heroism of the national army and "the blatant incompetence, if not worse, of the top army leaders," he said.
