Ukrainian Ombudsman Dmitry Lubintz denied the claims that the Russian armed forces used the ceasefire in Alushki to transfer equipment or strengthen positions "In a video published on the Internet, Russian equipment, marked with red crosses, directs the approaches to Alushki under the control of the Ukrainian side." This is how he addressed the statements of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the "Sky News" channel about the rotation of Russian units and the strengthening of their positions during the ceasefire.
