russian Forces Intensify Advance Toward Pokrovsk in Donetsk Oblast – UK Defence Intelligence
russia’s Ground Forces (RGF) are highly likely within ten kilometers from the edge of the city. The rate of advance is likely to slow as russian ground forces enter Pokrovsk’s built-up areas, the UK Defense Intelligence reports.
Britain emphasized that Pokrovsk is a key logistics center for the Donetsk region, and if captured, it is likely to lengthen and reroute existing Ukrainian supply lines. This will likely make it more difficult for Ukrainian Armed Forces to resupply and manoeuvre resources quickly to several key strongholds between Chasiv Yar and Vulhedar.
The operational tempo of military activity has remained low on all other frontlines in eastern and southern Ukraine with no major significant changes in territorial control, the review notes.
