Huliaypole axis overtakes Pokrovsk in Russian assaults

The General Staff reported 28 Russian attacks in the Huliaypole area over the past day, targeting the vicinities of Huliaypole, Myrne, Zelenе, and toward Dobropillia, Zaliznychne, and Olenokostiantynivka.

On the Oleksandrivka axis, Russian troops attacked eight times — near Rybne, Berezove, Oleksandrohrad, and Novohryhorivka. On the Orikhiv axis, there were two clashes — towards Prymorske and near Stepnohirsk.

"Over the past few days, the dynamics of the front line have intensified in Huliaypole and even surpassed the Pokrovsk axis, where the enemy, having essentially occupied the city, is now entrenched deep within the territory, particularly in the Zalyznychne-Staroukrainka-Sviatopetrivka section. The enemy is taking advantage of opportunities that are emerging, in particular, due to problems in our defense, and, drawing on additional resources, is putting pressure on the Huliaypole axis," Deep State analysts said.

At the same time, the Russian forces remain active near Pokrovsk. According to the General Staff, the Defense Forces stopped 27 assaults on this axis near the settlements of Myrnohrad, Rodynske, Kotlyne, Udachne, Novomykolaivka, Novopidhorodne, and in the direction of the settlements of Kucheriv Yar, Novooleksandrivka, Bilytske, Hryshyne, and Novopavlivka.

Another active direction on the Russian side is Kostiantynivka. According to Deep State, the enemy "is constantly probing our defenses around the city, looking for weak spots, trying to gain a foothold and accumulate forces, and breaking through to reach Kostiantynivka itself in order to establish a staging area for battles for the city."

The General Staff reported 28 Russian attacks in the direction of Kostiantynivka, Illinivka, Ivanopillia, Stepanivka, Novopavlivka, Sofiyivka, and near Pleshchiyivka and Rusyn Yar.

The monitoring project also reports an "increase" in the number of assault operations by the Russian troops near Slovyansk: "According to local fighters, the enemy has reinforced the section with infantry, which is already becoming more active in its attacks on Ukrainian military positions."

According to the General Staff, Ukrainian defenders stopped eight attempts by the aggressor to advance towards Kryva Luka, Ray-Oleksandrivka, Riznykivka, and near the settlements of Yampil, Zakitne, and Platonivka on the Slovyansk axis over the past day.
