The enemy is regrouping near Pokrovsk.

The occupying Russian forces continue to retreat from the western outskirts of Pokrovsk, although active hostilities are still ongoing in the area. The enemy has decided to regroup its forces.

Currently, the situation is quite active, the enemy is conducting offensive actions primarily in the Pokrovsk direction, which remains active, as does the Toretsk direction. Other areas are somewhat quieter than they were, for example, a week ago,' said the spokesman for the operational-strategic grouping of troops 'Khortytsia' Viktor Trehubov in a television broadcast.

According to him, the retreat of the Russians from the outskirts of Pokrovsk is a result of the unsatisfactory outcome of the offensive operation that the enemy began at the end of 2023. The objective of the operation was to encircle the city from the western side and block the road leading to the Dnipropetrovsk region.

The Russians set a goal to capture Pokrovsk back at the end of 2023 and made significant efforts to achieve this... Now this withdrawal is actually continuing. It is the result of one large but unsuccessful operation, in which they lost a lot of personnel and equipment,' Trehubov noted.

The spokesman also added that on the eastern flank of the Pokrovsk direction, the enemy is trying to cut off the road between Pokrovsk and Kostiantynivka, but so far this is unsuccessful. In addition, the Russian troops are concentrating significant forces in the neighboring Novopavlivka direction, where they 'are trying to apply pressure for a long Time without results.'
