Russian forces are facing devastating losses in the Pokrovsk and Dobropillya sectors, where Ukrainian defenders have captured over 2,200 enemy soldiers since the beginning of the year, according to official reports from the Defense Forces.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this during a conversation with journalists.<\/p>\n

\u201cPutin needed Dobropillya. And our guys did the right thing. We don\u2019t know what the Russians would have done if we hadn\u2019t carried out the Dobropillya operation. They wiped out a huge number of their troops there. Our forces captured 2,200 of them\u2014that\u2019s in just six months of 2025. The entire eastern front\u2014Dobropillya, Pokrovsk\u2014brought us 2,200 Russian prisoners. Imagine how many more they\u2019ve lost,\u201d Zelenskyy said.<\/p>\n

The President also noted that the Russian command had planned to capture Pokrovsk last year but suffered heavy setbacks and losses. According to him, the city remains one of the enemy\u2019s key objectives, particularly as the Kremlin seeks to strengthen its negotiating position with the United States.<\/p>\n

As a reminder, fierce urban fighting continues in Pokrovsk<\/a>: Russian troops, taking advantage of their numerical superiority, have infiltrated the city, but Ukrainian defenders continue to actively resist and destroy the enemy.<\/p>\n

Earlier, it was reported that approximately 200 Russian infidels had penetrated Ukrainian positions in Pokrovsk<\/a> in the Donetsk region; gunfire continues in the city.<\/p>\n
