On August 20, the Commander -in -Chief of the Armed Forces Oleksandr Syrsky stated that Russian troops increase pressure in the north of Donetsk region – in the Lyman direction, but, according to him, Pokrovsky, Dobropilsky and Novopavlovsky remain the hottest directions.
The promotion of Russian troops for almost a tens of kilometers in the direction of Dobropillya on August 11 marked on his map the analytical project of Deepstate. The spokesman of the operative-strategic group of the Dnipro troops, Lieutenant Colonel Victor Tregubov the next day stated that in Dobropil and Pokrovsky directions Russian troops use the tactics of “impregnation”, which creates a false impression of advancement.
