The offensive of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation near Pokrovsk has slowed: the dynamics of fighting for the past week (map)

Last week, Russian troops formed the southern flank of the Pokrovsky direction. At the same time, Ukrainian defenders managed to repel positions in New York of Donetsk region. Last week, the promotion of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the Pokrovsky direction, one of the hottest sections of the front, has slowed down somewhat. The enemy focused on the formation of the southern flank.

At the same time, Russian troops intensified in the coal, returning to the tactics of using a large number of heavy armored vehicles. Alexander Kovalenko, a military-political observer of the group "Information Resistance" told about the situation in different areas of the front and a change in the dynamics of fighting. It was noted that the promotion of Russian troops near Pokrovsk, though slowed down, but has not yet been completely stopped by the enemy.

The invaders were moving towards Halytsynivka, the desired first and desirable second, on the left bank of the Vovcha River. Thus, they had the opportunity to go to the settlements of Ukrainian and Minek. According to Kovalenko, this creates a rather dangerous situation for the defense units that hold positions near Kurakhivka. This settlement is important because there is a Zhukov reservoir that can safely be removed Ukrainian troops in the event of a threat to the so -called Neuelian pocket.

"I would like to remind that the main ways of departure of the Defense Forces of Ukraine in the Kurakhivka and Star district remain under the control of the Ukrainian forces. So far, the Russians have begun intensive assault actions in the Gornyak area and Ukrainian, Jeanne first and Zhelan second Kovalenko emphasized. At the same time, the Russian army ran active fighting in the area of ​​coal to enter the settlement of Vodyane.

This section of the front, the observer noted, became a priority, since the main forces of the Armed Forces are focused on defense of positions near Kurakhov and Selidovo. In assault operations, the enemy uses armored equipment for the first time in a long time - tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, BTRIs and more. However, Ukrainian defenders reflect attacks and hold their positions. There were positive changes in this front of the front.

Despite the propaganda statements of the Russian Federation on the control of New York settlement, there were several positions where the Ukrainian forces were reflected. Thus, the full seizure of the city by Russian troops is not referred to - almost the northern part of it is under the control of the Armed Forces.

As for Toretsk itself, the situation for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is also not in the best way, since the occupiers have failed to break into the city last week, and the fighting goes on the outskirts where Ukrainian troops keep key heights. Last week, Russian troops advanced north of the time ravine in the Kalynivka area, using a large number of assault units. However, in this area of ​​the front, during the fighting, the enemy loses a large part of his resource.

South of the Siversky enemy troops also slowed down. This could be due to the fact that some of the forces were transferred to the Kursk region to relieve the offensive of the Armed Forces, Kovalenko suggested. In the area of ​​Novovodian, Ukrainian troops expanded their presence area, but at the same time the Russians were successful near the sandy, where the bridgehead was expanded in two directions, including in the direction of the Oskil River.
