Ukrainian defenders are actively conducting defensive operations in the Pokrovsk and Dobropillya directions, where they are faced with numerically superior Russian forces. The situation is very complex and dynamic, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Russian troops have concentrated more than 110 thousand servicemen in the Pokrovsk direction and are attempting to break through Ukrainian defensive positions using diversionary and infantry groups.
Several enemy groups tried to bypass Ukrainian positions and advance towards certain settlements, but the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine took measures to block them and strengthen the defense. Defenders are ready to repel any enemy offensives and rely on the support of society.
Events in eastern Ukraine show that Ukrainian military forces continue to defend their territory from the aggressive actions of Russian troops, taking necessary measures to ensure defense capability and the safety of the civilian population.
