"The offensive in Shyrokyne has been lasting for almost an hour. Terrorists have been firing on the regiment's positions from 82mm- and 120mm-caliber mortars, automatic grenade launchers, heavy guns and small arms. Azov fighters are holding the positions and properly repelling the enemy's attack," the regiment wrote on its Facebook page on Friday evening.
