The Russian Army is trying to block the roads to Pokrovsk.


The military group 'Khortytsia' reported that Russian troops are trying to encircle Pokrovsk to cut off supplies to the city.
According to the spokesperson of the group Viktor Trehubov, the Russians are attempting to maneuver around Pokrovsk from the south and southwest.
'The Russians are actively building their fortifications on the occupied territory. On our part, we are attacking their infrastructure, warehouses, and airfields. We do not destroy the roads, but we damage their connecting nodes. This leads to a decrease in the use of Russian aviation. It limits the Russians' ability to advance actively,' he stated.
Trehubov emphasized that the Russian occupiers do not have a significant advantage for active combat operations near Pokrovsk.
'Currently, the Russians do not possess such an advantage that would allow them to actively advance without significant losses and without dragging. Both sides are acting quite exhausted, resembling a boxing match in the 10th round. The one who was more active at the beginning is more fatigued and begins to weaken before the opponent,' the military explained.
