During December, the command of the Russian Armed Forces has continued to step up the combat capabilities of the operational grouping of the Russian-occupation forces in the temporarily occupied territories of Donetsk and Luhansk regions.

As the Chief Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine informs, the occupiers secretly brought fuel, military equipment, weapons and ammunition, electronic warfare, and unmanned aerial vehicles by rail and road from the territory of the Russian Federation to the units and divisions of the 1st (Donetsk) and 2nd (Luhansk) army corps.

The occupiers also used so-called "humanitarian convoys" to covertly supply military equipment.

Also, according to intelligence data, Russia has significantly increased the delivery of armored combat vehicles, both new and restored or modernized at Russian repair plants, to the units and divisions of the occupation forces.

In addition, Russian military personnel and mercenaries are sent to the enemy's units to fill vacancies in certain military specialties, primarily intelligence, snipers, artillerists, liaison officers, specialists in electronic reconnaissance and electronic warfare.

As reported, over the past day, December 27, the occupiers violated the ceasefire in eastern Ukraine ten times, wounding two Ukrainian soldiers.
