Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Russia Pushes Into Pokrovsk as Ukraine Defenders Hold the Line
Caption: Russia Pushes Into Pokrovsk as Ukraine Defenders Hold the Line. Russian forces claim to have advanced into parts of Pokrovsk, focusing on the city’s railway and industrial zones. Ukraine reports its defenders are still holding firm, with no major Russian gains in the past 24 hours. Moscow says its troops have entered the Prigorodny district and are fortifying their positions there. President Zelenskyy warns that Russian troops are massing near Dobropillia, close to earlier Ukrainian advances. Ukrainian forces are intensifying operations near Dobropillia to draw Russian attention away from Pokrovsk. Kyiv says Russian troops attack in small groups without armored support and have not seized any full district. The fall of Pokrovsk would mark Russia’s biggest territorial gain since capturing Avdiivka in early 2024. Russian forces also launched strikes on Ukrainian military sites and reported limited gains near Kupiansk. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
