Russians are facing exhaustion. The OSUV "Khortytsia" shared an update on the situation near Pokrovsk.

Russian forces attempted to break through to Pokrovsk from the west, however, as of now, this attempt has failed.

As reported by RBK-Ukraine, this was stated by Viktor Trehubov from the operational-strategic group "Khortytsia" during a broadcast on "Radio Liberty."

According to him, this was made possible due to the effective actions of Ukrainian drone operators, who provided reliable protection for the city. Despite the presence of a strong Russian group in the Novopavlivka direction that could have intensified the attacks, they were unable to achieve significant success.

"There is a noticeable trend of exhaustion among the Russians. I'm not saying that the Ukrainians have some second, third, or five-hundredth wind... But the Russians are indeed beginning to show signs of certain physical, moral, and material fatigue. This is evident," he noted.

Fighting for Pokrovsk

Currently, Pokrovsk has become the main target for the Russians, with the occupiers attempting to breach its defenses every day. This is why this section has become one of the most challenging stretches of the front.

According to Viktor Trehubov from the operational-strategic group "Khortytsia," the Russians have changed their tactics for attacking Pokrovsk. Instead of launching a frontal assault on the city, they are now trying to encircle it.

Yesterday, it was reported that the Sicheslav airborne troops took control of the settlement of Kotlino near Pokrovsk. The Armed Forces of Ukraine pushed the enemy beyond the village and did not allow them to establish a foothold.
