"Ticks" near Pokrovsk: As the troops of the Russian Federation increase the pressure on the key area of ​​the front

And it does so by attracting additional forces. Thus, there is an increase in the grouping of the enemy troops, introduced into a breakthrough north of the Vozdvizhenka, forces and means from the 51st General, clearly regroup here from the Toretsky direction. In particular, the assault units from the 1st and 9th OMSBR of the 51st ID have already been observed here.

In addition, most of the 8th MSD continues here-almost the entire 20th MSD and part of the forces of the 150th IAS, in particular: at the moment the enemy managed to move south only from the settlement of the ravine of the Yar's forces of the 102nd SMEs and the 163rd Tank Regiment (TP) at about 1. 5-1. 7 km.

Attempts to break into the new economic area through Mirolyubivka and Malynivka are also not effective for the enemy - he is still forced to fight stubborn battles for their maintenance with the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. To the south and southwest of Pokrovsk, in the strip of the 41st name of the enemy, the situation is more intense.

Obviously, south of Kotlyarivka, the advanced units of the 90th Tank Division (TD) of the enemy managed to enter the administrative border between Dnipropetrovsk and Donetsk regions of Ukraine and to become entrenched in Kotlyarivka, moving 1. 5 km in 2 days. In the direction of Novooleksandrivka - Novomykolaivka fights are conducted with variable success.

It is obvious that the enemy, acting on both banks of the Solon River, tries to break into Novosergiivka and fix himself (so far unsuccessfully), but, apparently, he was able to approach her from the east. For its part, the Armed Forces, apparently, managed to push the enemy southeast of Novomykolaivka somewhere half a kilometer, although the enemy constantly tries to attack from the south both Novomykolaivka itself and Novosergiyivka.

There is part of the forces of the 27th Motorized Rifle Division of the enemy and the assault units from its 30th OMSBR. Further to the south of the 114th OMSBR (51st General) and the 36th OMSBR (29th IVA "Vostok") the enemy managed to break into Oleksiivka and take at least half of the village of Bogatyr. However, as of yesterday evening, the Armed Forces continue to keep part of Constantinople and the rich man, as well as conduct stubborn battles with an opponent in Oleksiivka and Odradny.

For the Armed Forces, the situation is even more complicated here than under Pokrovsky itself. It is obvious that if the enemy continues to move in Oleksiivka, the Ukrainian units will have to leave the whole area completely, including both Oleksiivka itself and Constantinople, as well as a rich. Just because it will be impossible there to hold positions out of both sides by flank. The author expresses a personal opinion that may not coincide with the editorial position.
