The Russian army is actively deploying its infantrymen to the northern areas of Pokrovsk — the situation in the city is getting worse.
This was reported by analysts of the DeepState project.
According to their information, access to Pokrovsk is currently limited. The enemy is remotely mining the city, and re-mining areas that have been cleared.
In addition, the Russians are eager to enter Hryshyne. As analysts write, recently the attention of Ukrainian troops has been focused more on this settlement than on Pokrovsk, which the occupiers are using.
Instead, the Defense Forces have made several attempts in recent days to deploy personnel with armored vehicles.
“There is no need to write who gave such a command, everyone already knows him… The vehicles were destroyed, the personnel numbered 300. It is worth noting that the enemy increased the use of rockets on the positions of the Defense Forces,” the report says.
The Russians are also massing troops in the Myrnograd sector. DeepState noted that the enemy is violating humanitarian law by massing in the church along with civilians.
“Chaotic fighting continues in the northern part of the city with the remnants of the Defense Forces grouping, which is in Myrnograd, and there are no plans for their exit, despite the fact that Pokrovsk is about to fall into the hands of the Katsaps,” analysts noted.
Among other things, the occupiers are increasing pressure on Rodynske, the last settlement through which the Defense Forces can withdraw from Myrnograd.
The Russians are moving west of Rodynske deep into the Ukrainian defenses. There they are looking for drone operators who are at risk of coming into fire contact with enemy attack aircraft.
Earlier, Oleksandr Syrskyi stated that Russian troops are intensifying attempts to break through the defense of Ukrainian units in the Pokrov direction in the Donetsk region.
As a reminder, the enemy is increasing pressure on the northern part of Myrnograd , trying to accumulate heavy equipment and manpower for a further assault on the city.
