The Ukrainian armed forces are holding back the offensive near Pokrovsk and Mirnograd.

The Ukrainian Defense Forces continue to carry out tasks to contain Russian troops in the Pokrovska agglomeration.

This is reported by the 7th Corps of the DShV.

It is known that the defensive operation involved units of the DSHV, assault units, Unmanned Systems Forces, Navy, SDF, SSU, SBU, National Guard and National Police.

In the past week, the total losses of enemy personnel amounted to 446 people, which is 30% more than in the previous period. The growth of losses is attributed to the full involvement of the Russian operational reserve - three regiments of the 76th Airborne Assault Division.

The Ukrainian military is conducting an operation to provide air cover for overland logistics routes on the approaches to the Pokrovskaya agglomeration. Thanks to the coordinated actions of the defenders, almost 100% of enemy air targets that try to approach these routes are destroyed.

The situation in Pokrovsk

Russian troops are most active on the western outskirts of the city. Units of the 76th Russian Airborne Division are trying to break through in the direction of the village of Grishino, northwest of Pokrovsk, operating several routes at once.

The defense forces are countering these attempts, cutting off the enemy's likely routes of advance and hitting them with artillery and FPV drones.

The situation in Mirnograd

On the southeastern outskirts of Mirnograd, the enemy is increasing pressure. Sporadic attempts of enemy infiltration on the approaches to the "upper" Mirnograd are recorded, but Ukrainian soldiers, in particular the soldiers of the 38th Independent Marine Brigade, detect and destroy sabotage groups.

The defense forces also continue to stabilize and expand the logistical corridor to Mirnograd. In the areas of Svetly and Rivne, they record sporadic appearances of enemy groups, which are promptly eliminated.
