Ukrainian journalist Roman Bochkala writes on his Facebook page that he has received reports of a large military column headed north in the Lugansk region.

He writes (translated by The Interpreter):

My contacts and a number of eyewitnesses have told me that a large column of military vehicles passed through Lugutino yesterday. The column was headed to the north of the Lugansk region.

Bochkala notes that the area to the north is still under Ukrainian control. This report could be related to the offensive waged over the last day around the Bakhmutka highway, which has left over 100 Ukrainian soldiers pinned down near Smile.

We have yet to see further reports on this column.
