The enemy is trying to gain a foothold in high-rise buildings, mainly in the southern part of the city," a military officer said on the air of the Espresso TV channel on November 17. The defense forces are disrupting the enemy's plans with all their might. However, the weather makes its adjustments, which at the same time creates problems and gives advantage to both sides of the conflict.
"Fogs are very helpful for Russian soldiers, because then we have no opportunity to conduct aerial reconnaissance in full and have to detect them by ear when they come closer," Gus noted. At the same time, according to him, these same fogs allow Ukrainian forces to conduct rotations more calmly, deliver ammunition and food. "The number of enemies in the city is estimated to be in the hundreds, I do not have access to exact numbers.
In addition, the enemy is still trying to bypass Pokrovsk from the flanks: from the southwest, fighting is going on from the side of Dachny and Kotlyny, along the railway that stretches to the city from that direction, and also from the northeast, heavy fighting is going on - from the side of Rodinsky, Krasnoy Liman," the platoon commander informed. He said that in Pokrovsk itself, the occupiers do not resort to classic sweeps, for example by blocks.
Instead, the fighters of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation run from shelter to shelter and gather at certain points. The Armed Forces are practicing at these locations. We will remind, ISW analysts reported that the Russian Armed Forces increased pressure on the Pokrovsky direction. The enemy is trying to isolate the Defense Forces in Pokrovsk and Myrnograd.
