[Korrespondent] Russian army develops offensive between Konstantinovka and Pokrovsk
The Russian invaders are trying to bypass the city's defenses from the east and semi-encircle it.
The Russian army made some progress on the front line in Donetsk Oblast between the cities of Konstantinovka and Pokrovsk. This was reported by Viktor Tregubov, a representative of the operational-strategic group of forces Khortitsa, on air at Suspilne. Studio on Sunday, July 27.
"There is still some progress on their part at Pokrovsk - a partial penetration between Pokrovsk and Konstantinovka. They are trying to develop it, while our troops are trying to destroy as much manpower and equipment as possible, slow down the advance and push them back," he noted.
According to Tregubov, the direction of Pokrovsk is the key vector of the Russian offensive and the section of the front where the occupiers have concentrated the largest number of forces with the aim of trying to bypass the city's defenses from the east and take it into semi-encirclement.
"But in general, storming the city now makes no sense, because the Russians have already learned what happens if you storm cities like this head-on. Despite all the force that they have now, they still won't have enough people to repeat the "meat storms" that took place in Mariupol and Bakhmut. They will simply spend them completely. That is why they are trying to partially encircle the city," said the speaker of the OSUV, Khortytsia.
Let us recall that 1,413 civilians remain in Pokrovsk, and there are 2,809 within the community. Currently, there is not a single district in the city that has not been damaged or destroyed. The evacuation from Pokrovsk continues.
