Ukrainian forces continue a risky counteroffensive in Pokrovsk, trying to restore strategic logistics routes, according to a journalist at The Economist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oliver Carroll published on X videos and photos, he said, that illustrate the actions of the Ukrainian military in this region. He noted that the Armed Forces intelligence is working to breach enemy positions, which will enable improved logistical communications. In one of the videos, a UH-60 “Black Hawk” helicopter can be seen, likely preparing for an amphibious assault in an area that, according to the Russian Federation, is under its control. However, it is not possible to confirm the authenticity of these frames at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Information about this operation also appeared in Ukrainian sources. Citing data from the Defense Forces, the public reported that special units of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense conducted a complex amphibious operation in Pokrovsk. The sources claim that the assault groups of the GUR entered the areas that the Russian command had previously declared captured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Control over these parts of the city is critically essential for Ukrainian logistics, because an uninterrupted supply of resources is the key to defense capability in this direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, in his address, confirmed the problematic situation in Pokrovsk. He emphasized that Ukrainian forces continue their efforts to maintain control of the problem, stressing the importance of deterring the enemy in this regard. Zelensky also expressed gratitude to the military for their courage and determination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
People’s Deputy Roman Kostenko, secretary of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security and Defense, said in an interview that the fighting in Pokrovsk and its surroundings remains very intense. According to him, Russian troops are trying to block logistical routes and displace Ukrainian forces, which creates a threat to the environment. Despite the Ukrainian military’s efforts, the enemy continues to advance, and the situation is reaching a critical point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition, Russian troops are blocking the main route to Pokrovsk and increasing their presence in the city. DeepState observations indicate that the enemy has already advanced to the central and northern parts of Pokrovsk, reducing the distance to Mirnograd to less than 3 km.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
