MOSCOW, July 27. /TASS/. The Russian Armed Forces are successfully advancing, and the enemy is suffering defeat along the entire line of engagement, therefore it is trying to create tension in Russian society, Chairman of the State Duma (lower house of parliament) Vyacheslav Volodin said at a house plenary meeting.

"The enemy is suffering defeat along the entire line of engagement. We are on the advance.
