As Lasiychuk added, Ukrainian units operating in the central part of Pokrovsk are holding back the advance of the Russians.
Direct speech: “The situation is more complicated in the southern part. This is actually one of the areas that the enemy uses to accumulate and advance. We detect and destroy the enemy, preventing him from reaching Pokrovsk.
The enemy chooses tactics to avoid urban battles, not to enter the population center and bypass from the flanks. But we also control these areas. As of today, the city of Pokrovsk is not surrounded or blocked.”
Details: Regarding the connection with Myrnograd, Lasiychuk confirmed that logistics to the city are complicated, but they are being implemented.
Direct speech: “The units continue to enter the settlement and perform their tasks.
For a long time, the enemy tried to carry out frontal attacks on our forward positions, but he did not succeed. Now the enemy has chosen another bypass tactic – it is trying to cut off the logistics route. But there is no environment. The main task of the divisions in this direction is the expansion of the logistics corridor.”
