There are no urban battles in Pokrovsk, Ruscists are trying to bypass city - OSGT "Khortytsia"
Russian occupation forces are trying to bypass Pokrovsk in the Donetsk region to break the infrastructure chains.
This was stated by the spokesman of the OSGT"Khortytsia" Viktor Tregubov, Censor.NET reports with reference to Ukrinform.
"Yesterday, our defenders stopped 38 assault and offensive actions of the aggressor in the Pokrovsk sector. This is the hottest of all our sectors. It has remained so for the last few weeks. Neighboring areas, such as Kurakhove and Vremivske, also remain very hot. There are no urban battles in the city(Pokrovsk- Ed.). The Russians have not reached the city limits, but they are trying to cover it through neighboring settlements, villages, infiltrate in certain groups, accumulate (forces - Ed.) and continue to attack in order to bypass the city. Also, the active operation of UAVs, the active operation of everything that the Russians have now, is also concentrated in the area of the city of Pokrovsk," he said.
According to Tregubov, the town is quite large and fortified, so the occupiers are not launching a frontal assault.
At the same time, the invaders are bogged down in urban battles in a number of other areas, including Chasiv Yar and Kurakhove.
"The enemy is not counting on fighting in Pokrovsk now, but is trying to bypass the city and break the infrastructure chains," added the spokesman.
