On the Pokrovsk direction, Russian troops are actively trying to break through the defensive lines of the Ukrainian forces. According to Lieutenant Colonel Volodymyr Chernyak of the 'Rubizh' Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine, the enemy operates in small groups with reconnaissance, complicating the situation on the front. He noted this during a telethon.
Russian troops are using manpower to break through our front. Their small groups are looking for weak spots in our positions and continue to push forward. This makes our situation extremely difficult.
The tactic of the Russian troops involves using small groups that reconnoiter the territory from the air and move through forests to find gaps in the Ukrainian defensive lines. In addition, they find strongholds where they then bring additional equipment and troops to secure the already captured positions.
Their tactical actions make our army and defense on the Pokrovsk direction extremely threatened. We are in a difficult situation, but we are doing everything possible to defend our land and protect our compatriots.
Reports about Russian attacks and their insidious tactics on the front confirm that the conflict in eastern Ukraine continues, and the danger to national security remains high.
