The monitoring Telegram channel DeepState reports that the situation around Pokrovsk and Myrnohrad remains critical. According to their information, Russian forces continue spreading across the city and its outskirts, attempting to establish physical control. Most enemy movements are recorded in the central and northern parts of Pokrovsk, while activity in the south has decreased. Ukraine’s Defense Forces are attempting to clear specific areas, but the main workload falls on drone pilots, who continuously search for and destroy enemy positions. DeepState notes that even after successful clearances, Russian infantry is often able to return to the same areas.
A particularly problematic zone lies near the settlement of Rivne and along the section between Pokrovsk and Krasnyi Lyman. Enemy forces are consistently detected there, setting up ambushes, mining the area and building engineering obstacles, including razor wire. This significantly complicates logistics and poses serious risks for movement toward Myrnohrad.
Fighters on the ground report that logistics to Myrnohrad are now carried out mainly using drones and small robotic systems. Vehicles and other equipment have not been used for a long time — any physical movement almost certainly leads to an ambush and direct contact with the enemy. DeepState adds that Ukrainian units are also required to hold a narrow “corridor,” which demands additional resources. They suggest assigning this section to other units to secure logistics routes and ease the burden on frontline brigades.
DeepState emphasizes that the situation remains critical and the battle for Pokrovsk and Myrnohrad continues.
