Lieutenant of the Ukrainian Defense Forces under the pseudonym 'Alex' commented on the posted evidence. 'Looking at the footage of the killed local residents of Pokrovsk, when the war has been going on for over 4 years, one can express only one thing - f*** off, there are no positive impressions,' the military noted.

According to Khrystov, the Russian sabotage and reconnaissance group responsible for this military crime was later eliminated by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Situation in Pokrovsk is deteriorating

Volunteer Serhiy Sternenko spoke about the worsening situation in Pokrovsk. 'There are new cases of ambushes on our military inside the city. Problems with logistics. Delivery of supplies is impossible. Some positions are already cut off from the main forces,' Sternenko noted.

Russian saboteurs managed to penetrate the center of Pokrovsk and kill several peaceful residents. Ukrainian troops managed to repel four settlements that were previously under the control of Russian forces. This was reported by the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky at a briefing for journalists, where 'Glavkom' was present.

Conclusion

Another military crime by Russian troops against civilians has been recorded in Pokrovsk. The situation in the city is worsening, but the Ukrainian Armed Forces and volunteers continue to fight for the freedom and independence of the country.
