, which is north of pokrovsk, and on selidove and ukrainsk, which is further south. this is roman pohorily co-founder of the deep state project, says that these are the last cities where the armed forces of the armed forces of ukraine can hold back the forces of the russian federation and where major battles can take place. in addition... the analyst notes that the logistics of the armed forces are currently suffering, because the section of the main highway in the silidovoy area, which went to kurakhovoy, is already occupied, and the pokrovsk, mirnograd, kostyantynivka highway is also closed, because the rf forces have fire control there, i.e. she is completely shot through them. the armed forces have other logistical routes, but these detours are longer and slower, so movement it is more difficult, so to speak, burnt out. they write about pokrovsk and the rate of advance of russian forces in the west as well. the forecasts there are rather pessimistic. the british newspaper times writes that zelensky will probably have to accept the loss of pokrovsky's temporary su

the battle for pokrovsk is not about reaching pokrovsk, the battle for pokrovsk is when these battlesrter begin, well, in reality it is for every house, and sometimes it happens for every entrance. i know well, my friends fought in soledar, for example, well, it really happened when the same entrance changed hands several times and only then did some progress take place, it looks like this, but let me consider one more script sorry but i would like to clarify here and there, because when there was a battle for avdiyivka and bahmud, the circumstances were different, there were more soldiers, more trained soldiers, after that ukraine mobilized, there are complaints that even syrskyi admitted in an interview that the military was not sufficiently trained . or stop, stop, stop, you are claiming a lot of things now, where did you get them from? about the fact that the military does not go through enough training for them, well , they are the ones who went through enough, come on, in the 22nd year, in general, people went straight from the shopping center to front, and now we are saying tha

direction and pokrovsk itself.tion, rather complicated, but already battles are being fought both here and there, and when the command of the armed forces made the decision to hold one operation and the continuation of the defense operation, they probably weighed all the pros and cons, the presence of our troops in kurshchyna, as well as the weakening of our positions in the pokrov direction, so now it is quite difficult to say whether it is right or wrong, there is logic in the actions of the leadership. and we do not know definitively that the plans have been voiced, for what it was carried out, that is all well and good, but these are not one hundred percent arguments that should be believed, there is another plan that we can guess about for the time being, and i am not telling you at the end i still understood how much was declared earlier, or so the hints were certain, that there were expectations that russia would still transfer troops from the pokrovsky direction to kurshchyna, today russia went on the offen

so, as the telegraph writes: russia can seize pokrovsk already this month. quite quickly, russian troops captured a number of other settlements on the way to pokrovsk. for example, they started appearing about a week ago. isolated reports from osin and analysts that russian troops were approaching novogrodivka. 5 days ago, deputy of the defense committee parliament maryana bezugla stated that the russian troops captured the city in a few days, according to her, there was practically no ukrainian army there. the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine did not officially announce the loss of novogorodivka, but judging by the deep state map, after the loss of novogorodivka, ukrainian troops were unable to stop the advance of the russian army east of the city. as a result, russian troops wedged themselves into the defense of the armed forces of the selidove and ukrainian cities, cutting off the supply routes of the entire ukrainian group east of this area. and again, judging by this map, the village of karlivka and all territories on the banks of the karliv

the fall of pokrovsk could have extremely negative consequences for ukraine.eat slavyansk and kramatorsk will be found, and the russians will be like never before. will get closer to their goal - to enter the administrative borders of donetsk region. the capture of pokrovsk also creates the prerequisites for an attack on dnipropetrovsk oblast, because outside the city there are no large agglomerations or natural obstacles where the bsu could gain a foothold and successfully conduct a defense. if the defense forces manage to stop the russians on the approaches to pokrovsk, or in the city itself, there will likely be a pause due to both the exhaustion of the parties and the rains, which will complicate the conduct of hostilities, primarily for heavy equipment, the parties will start preparations for the winter company as early as 2025. with... in connection with our studio, pavlo dyachenko, head of the communication department of the main administration of the national police in donetsk region. glory to ukraine, mr. pavle, to the heroes, glory to the studio. wel

pokrovsk. can watch our materials, and orbita, after all, two weeks after the message you refer to, managed to restore broadcasting, but partially, that is, not everyone can see, as for myrnograd, myrnograd is in a complete vacuum, and those residents with whom i spoke this week who left myrnograd, but went to the city of rodenskoe on business to charge their phones and buy something and make a call. to their relatives, they say that no one says anything about myrnograd anywhere, and that's it when i said that you don't see it, they were somehow surprised, and they really don't have any information, it was the same in mariupol, i think it was the same in bakhmut, because they live in their environment there, well, no have the opportunity to know something, pokrovsky himself looks very sad now, it’s such a feeling, i ’ll tell you that every city where there are no... people and no cars on the streets, it’s a completely different city, we have such wide streets, i even i had no idea when cars were driving on it, it's sad, but now you're showing mine last report about boiler houses, we

in this video we have the territory of the donetsk region, pokrovsk direction. here we see a splice, yes from a video recording from fpv glasses from a drone, which directly carries out objective control, target destruction. i think that this video is a complete fake. this is very clearly noticeable, because here we have a discrepancy in the targets, first we are shown a picture, which supposedly depicts b1, and then we have a splice from fp glasses, where it is clearly visible that fp drone flies into nato -style equipment, this machine is different from bmp 1, this is 99% accurate. american production, so if for a layman, by what parameters can you immediately understand that this is not a b1? firstly, the hood, and bmp-1, bп-2, there is a corrugated cover, and the front headlights, ae silhouette, that is, bmp brands are much higher than bmp2, probably one and a half times higher, then also in this video at the very end there is also the same splicing, there you can see how their faggot flies into the rear ramp. bpredli, there too there is a freeze frame, you

, they say, and what do you think of pokrovsk? they leave all their strength to pokrovsky? yes, they pulled away from zaporizhzhia region, they pulled away from kherson region, but they didn't pull away from pokrovsk. yes, pokrovsk is very difficult. but the blows are not one to 12, but 1/3. do you understand the difference between 1.3 and od12?

they show pokrovsk destroyed and deserted., everyone who wanted to, left long ago, look, they say in their report, only stubborn pensioners remain. and pokrovsk itself, judging by the materials of ukrainian propagandists, is a city that is hardly worth fighting for, somehow they kept silent about the fact that pokrovsk is actually the center of the coal industry and a strategically important supply hub for the ukrainian armed forces group in this direction. but they focused on mystical images. ukrainian propagandists, here they write: "pokrovsk has become a shadow of itself." what prepares the audience for the city to be surrendered? here are fragments of this report, the correspondent keeps trying to ask questions in the language, they answer him almost everything is in russian, the ukrreporter asks the residents of pokrovsk why they don't leave the city, enough already, i've already told you three times, once from crimea, from mariupol, that's it, we'll survive, we'll survive, we'll survive, we'll go home, and she made a con

when did you leave pokrovsk?eek ago, a week ago, how did it all happen, did you leave on your own or with some evacuation? columns, how was it, well , first, such an interesting story came out here, we are now with my family in a place of temporary stay, it is a dormitory of one of the educational institutions, and it came out, why are we here, because i came here for filming, i was doing a report on where displaced persons from donetsk region are being evacuated, and i saw beautiful people here conditions, i saw here friendly people who are very kind to the migrants from donets. and therefore i offered my family, this is my mother with my child, first my sister came here with her children, and they left with an evacuation bus, the humanitarian mission of prolistka and ov of donetsk helped, and they left here, i returned for another week on donetsk region to work, but thought to work longer, but due to the fact that the front line is getting closer and closer to pokrovsk, to marnograd, they still understood that

right now i am not in pokrovsk, but after this broadcast i will go there. yes.t will you do today, will you? probably, some kind of reporting to do, what will you tell your viewers and readers about? pokrovsky's life, tonight was quite loud, but let's wait for official statements, and in general, how many residents are leaving, as they are now live with the conditions that exist for them. you, how often are you now in pokrovsk, do you note for yourself how it changes every day, every day, i do, i... every day, well , i just spent the night, not in pokrovsk today, i was with the children, you note how much the landscape is changing, the one that is familiar, that you can say, what it is, which pokrovsk, i don't know, in recent weeks, how much has it changed? well, in my opinion, the brush is so intensely sad, it adds more colors to autumn, when the chestnuts fall, when the leaves fall, well... understands that it is being destroyed, and i understand that the townspeople are using the time for a more or less peaceful evacuation, well, that is, the city is not yet

and in... in several settlements, i will say that pokrovsk, the pokrovsk community is pokrovsk, rodenskh is also quite a large city, there are 15 thousand inhabitants, and 38 or 39 villages, villages and towns, and the forced evacuation continues of families with children from pokrovsk and, if i am not mistaken, 16 settlements, where orodenskoe is included, and now there are 500 or so children left, the number has decreased, people are leaving, i... i can tell you that, well, myrnograd had 47 thousand inhabitants, now there are less than 2 thousand, everyone understands that this is a one-way ticket side, that's why it wasn't just running out, it left there with you you show mirnograd now, i left with one bag and a passport, everyone understands that there is an opportunity to take something, the main thing is to find a job, that is, i think that yes, that it slows you down a little, it was nataliya biryukova. a journalist who continues to live and work in pokrovsk, near which, as previously claimed, the russian military is 10 km away. thank you well, i urge you to subscribe to radio li

in fact, your colleagues told us that most of the people now who... leave myrnograd and pokrovsk drivevlograd by car and from there they go somewhere further to the rear or to the west of the country by rail. mr. andrii, is there anyone to restore this water supply, electricity, gas supply and in general, is there a plan to do all this now, because we understand that shelling continues constantly, accordingly, this is also an additional threat to those groups, emergency workers, who will do all this to the specialists of vouski. well, the head of the gas service commented to us yesterday and informed us that he has 25% of workers left, so they will restore , well, within the limits of what they are capable of now, and in any case, the process is not fast, while part of the city has electricity. then some people will live, if not there will also be electricity, then the situation will be even more complicated, for understanding, we were working that week and in morinograd a lot, in pokrovsk, we were already yesterday. then mirnograd was simply emptied literally in a month there were 20

so far, only one thing is known: serhiy never got to pokrovsk. boy did not return home either, and no one knows where he is now. serhiy's mother still lives in mariupol and does not lose hope of finding her son. meanwhile, serhiy's father, who has been living separately for a long time and is now in the territory controlled by ukraine, is doing everything possible to find serhiy. look carefully at the photo of the child. if anyone knows where serhiy samoilov might be, don't delay. choose from any mobile operator, the short number of the child tracing service magnolia 11630, calls to the hotline from any ukrainian mobile operator are free. if suddenly there is no connection, write to the chatbot of the child tracing service in telegram. any information is important. we have created a resource through which you can report any crime against a child. in any city, at any time, simply. go to the site and report, and we will launch all possible mechanisms to punish the criminal. stopcrime ua. congratulations, the program of the ukrainian service is on t

see another article from pokrovsk.e evacuating my mother, she is sick, and my sister has down syndrome since childhood, and she cannot speak normally, so no one will understand her, and if someone says something to her, she will not understand anything.

hundreds of ukrainian servicemen are about to be surrounded south of pokrovsk.ve of russian troops on pokrovsk threatens not only the city itself and its vital supply lines, but. the retreat of the ukrainians may have already begun, if so, then this is a reasonable step with side of the ukrainian command. we are now learning the situation in the pokrovsk direction, because tas special correspondent sergei gavrilyuk is in touch with us. sergei, hello. hello, i am now in donetsk, it is a little more than 50 km from krasnoarmeysk or as it is called in ukraine pokrovsk. here... russian troops are really advancing quite confidently, since mid -august alone about 10 settlements in this direction have been liberated, if we talk about other successes, then the supply of the ukrainian group along the major e-50 highway, also remember that krasnoarmeysk is the center of the so-called western donbass agglomeration, which also includes dimitrov, dobrovolne, selidovo, and just near selidovo there are also successes. the russian military, they are advancing deep into the enem

, and in principle, the battles for pokrovsk, they can last for months, all the same , we understandtill managed to implement this plan and go to admin - the borders of donetsk region, then the next is dnipropetrovsk region, and therefore completely it is logical to prepare for this, possibly negative, possibly the worst scenario, among those that we may have, nevertheless, money for ... fortifications, works on fortifications, contractors on fortifications, something happens in this plan, i am not asking you share some secret information that the enemy does not need to know, but at least, are there really certain movements to prepare, here the correct answer will be to the question, something is happening, because yes, of course, the information is closed, and well, even to me it is there insufficiently known, but what i know and that what we see and what we know and can say, well, the preparation is still not enough, in my opinion, i really hope that maybe i don't know something, or maybe it's some kind of plan that still has sense, but i really hope that we will not find out too l

mykola, from myrnograd, from pokrovsk, we are already being told openly that the cities are preparingtreet battles, that they are building various things. how does it look to you? well, you know, in our country, how should you understand that donbass, donetsk region is so densely populated that our cities are located next to each other, and uh, if, well, we have such a city, one city flows into another, then what i was and saw pokrovsk, i was extremely surprised, and these, yes, so-called... such a commonplace, pokrovsk roses, it's just some kind of horror, when a month before the enemy advanced there, roses were planted and something was being prepared inexplicably, instead of making fortifications, i repeat, i was in pokrovsk that week, stopped by and i was very, very interested in how it was being prepared, are fortifications being built to protect the same dobropill, which is behind pokrovsk, or are some... fortifications being built, i can't say that ahead of pokrovsk there they are not allowed to mirnograd, but behind pokrovsky i saw two anti-tank trenches, a couple of ditches,

as for the pokrovsk direction, the situation in the pokrovsk area could turn into a major failure, iof the word catastrophe, well, let it be a failure, for the armed forces of ukraine. hundreds of ukrainian soldiers could be surrounded, and this is what the forbes publication writes. let's read together: russian troops, potentially numbering tens of thousands of servicemen, are less than 10 km from pokrovsk. they bypassed ukrainian forces that hold the line between the village of memrik and the volchiy river, which runs 5 km east of memrik. as a result of such actions, a salient was exposed, which after russia's decisive maneuvers could turn into a trap for hundreds of ukrainian soldiers. how likely is such a scenario, everyone is writing about it, many are talking about it, it feels like they, i don't know, don't realize that this is our enemy, or there are no options, or to do, well, i don't know, or there is no strength, or there is nothing else, none of the above, they are misleading you again , look, let's just take a look from memory at the main headlines of the european, briti

moreover, we are now taking control of lysovka, bypassing pokrovsk to the south. the ukrainian armed forces are literally evacuating the population of pokrovsk, and many do not want to leave, which greatly surprises the german reporters on the deutsche welle agent. my mother, my son left, everyone left, i do not want to go anywhere, you understand, in a foreign land there is a foreign land, no one needs us, i think now i should just take my things to the first, well, at least downstairs in order to do something, are you waiting, who are you waiting for, i am waiting for ... the evacuation process itself in ukraine has long been not a way to help people, it's a business, nothing personal, we are talking about pokrovsk, there they evacuate for money, well, 50,000 for a family, a thousand hryvnia for an animal, i stop being surprised that so many ukrainians are starting to simply hate this country, hate those who earn money on the war at the expense of ukrainians, there are more and more of those in ukraine who support russia, well and are waiting for it, naturally,

abdujalil abdurasulov, bbc: pokrovsk. we talk more about the situation in pokrovsk with our guest, and military expert dmytro snygiriv joins the broadcast. we welcome you. so tell me which one the current situation near pokrovsk and is there any reason to say that it will stabilize. the situation is difficult, the enemy does not stop trying to attack in several directions at the same time. the first direction is along the line of horodivka, novohorodivka, krasny yaru, towards myrnograd, but the advance in this direction was blocked by the transfer of operational reserves of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine. in particular, we are talking about one of the most combat-ready brigades of the national guard of ukraine, the karadakh brigade. taking this into account, the enemy shifted the main... combat operations to other directions, primarily this selidova, and the city is trying to attack both frontally and, respectively, on the flanks, but the armed forces of ukraine firmly hold the settlement of mykhailivka,

, novogrodivka, selidova of all the settlements in the pokrovsk direction to pavlad, and further, if they have the opportunity and desire, they will to go by ukrzaliznytsia to those new points where they can be met and resettled, let's do this, if so-and-so, whatever affection. yes, please, from today there is no gas supply in the city, today there was a double shelling of pokrovsk, one person died, one person was injured, this is a family. er, a projectile hit the main building, this is a private sector, and this part of the city is constantly under fire, and there is no gas supply either in pokrovsk, or in rodinsky, or in the nearby villages that are there. if we talk about those settlements, where either the front line already passes through the settlement, or where the russians control part of these... settlements, i am not talking about those populated areas, which are occupied, obviously there is a different story, already at a glance , well, that’s clear, but where the front is now, or where the battles are going on, in one area, our troops are holding there, well, we know tha

residents mirnograd is already in place, but today no bread was brought from pokrovsk. the day before , the russian military destroyed the bridge between the cities. currently, the logistics are disrupted. of course, it's sad. of course, it's sad that everything worked, but now the infrastructure is gone. therefore, we are like a cut off slice. and on the neighboring street a few days ago, as a result of russian shelling , the market caught fire. when the rescuers arrived, the shelling started again, three dozen pavilions burned down. which are still smoldering, well, without a market, people need something, but animals there is nothing to buy, not even heads, some paws were there, there are so many dogs running around, hungry dogs, is that possible, now next to the closed market they sell from wheels, the selection is small, onions, potatoes and plague, i don’t buy much, because it takes a long time don't lie, it's thanks that people come, and valentina came here almost from the other end of mirnograd, not for vegetables, but where the 25th house is, yes, thank you! a

such a throw-in now and is it really a throw-in and how will they defend pokrovsk, will they?d , of course, will be a red army man, as it was called until 1914, and accordingly it is one of the key logistics hubs in general on the left-bank ukraine and specifically in the donbass, a number of enemy groups are supplied through it, the loss of such a logistics hub will have a cascading effect and will be reflected in many directions, what they say, that they can surrender it, is not important. this again will lay down a straw for themselves in advance, so that when they lose the city, they say that, well, it’s not important, they went to more advantageous positions, that is, again they are trying to calm society down, although the loss of krasnoarmeysk will have very serious consequences for ukraine, while in practice they are now removing some forces from a number of other areas and throwing them into the defense of krasnoarmeysk, mirnograd and selidovo, including now they have thrown reinforcements to the sugledav direction, weakening it. front, that is why we have now become

they are even trying to move to pokrovsk, well, at least to get a residence permit, in pokrovsk a lotf people are registered, this has already happened in the settlements that were handed over, it's so on... thousands of ukrainians from the pokrovsk agglomeration speak and think in russian, their consciousness could not be turned upside down even after several decades of brainwashing in ukraine. they understand perfectly well that no one will offend them here, no one will take them to be slaughtered in the army. now from many regions of ukraine , those who could not escape to the west, could not swim across the tisza, are trying to come here, hide and wait until they will be released. lysovka in the pokrovsk direction, actually under our control, is bypassed by selidov's fighters, then the signature pincers, and we will wait for new reports on french tv, because the correspondents of this channel, let me remind you, outlined the deadline for taking pokrovsk as 2 weeks, maximum. the largest logistics hub, the road to chasov, yary and konstantinovka, well, then slavyansko and kramatorsk

well, according to pokrovsk, i was in pokrovsk about a sunday and a half a week ago, and there was noo people at all, according to korakhov yes, but yesterday, the day before yesterday, today, when i came, there were almost no people. but there is someone there, someone has ridden there, somewhere there is a bicycle, somewhere there is some kind of car, but well, i immediately see that there are very few people, in pokrovsk, as i have seen recently, there are much more people, and there is no such thing as in general , there are no people there, there is nothing, people drive, there are cars, people also saw people, but less and less and less and less, but to buy food, to buy water, in general, how, how for... just the issue with the supply of this i think that it is a little easier, easier, but now places like hirnyk, well , the last time i was there, hirnyk, the account, that's it, there's nothing there, no shops, and i understand that humanitarian aid is no longer being brought, because the russians are already entering the outer streets these cities and settlements. as for pokrovs

and to the south of pokrovsk, what they did not stop at pokrovsk, they stopped, they understand thatther, but they must advance somewhere, somewhere somewhere before the rains begin, they must try to seize the maximum amount of territory, so they what what they, they they tried in the north near new york, well, the 12th brigade went there, the azofia national guard and everything, and they ran out of options there. in they stopped at pokrovsk and looked at the map, well, they began to search further south, where it is possible to advance, well, khurakhovsky is here, if pokrovsky and kostiantynovka are important, well, they are strategic cities, they are logistics centers, konstantinoka is generally a railway hub, then kurakhovsky is the direction, it is simply because , that they are trying to advance somewhere in order to... at least somehow before the rains, to have some kind of advantage there, some kind of advancement, but now we show it on the map and it can be seen that they are advancing literally every day and the pace is really impressive, and now they even say that the forc

please, according to the latest data, there are currently 18,000 residents in pokrovsk.e remind you that more than 60,000 people lived in pokrovsk before the start of the full-scale invasion. mandatory registration of families with children began on august 20. that is, people leave very actively and most leave in their own transport, volunteers help. today i saw how volunteers from the dnipro took a few people there, but the majority still they go to the city where they plan to live by their own transport, the evacuation train from pokrovsk no longer runs, and now the regional evacuation point is located in pavlograd, that is, you hear me, yes, we hear, please continue, uh, the regional evacuation point is closed in pavlograd, there are now logistical routes so that from myrnograd, pokrovsk, novogrodivka, selydovo, all the settlements that... in the pokrovsk direction, people were transported to pavlad, and further, if they have the opportunity, the desire, they will go by railway to those new points where they can be met and resettled, let's do it , dad, please, yes, pl

, because they went further south, realizing that reserves of ukrainian forces appeared in pokrovsk. can you explain please? what did you mean then, what is the situation south of pokrovsk and what are the goals of the russian army? well , actually, any comments that are there three days ago, two days ago, they are often densely become irrelevant already, even if it applies to my comments and comments experts, because the dynamics on the battlefield are fast enough, in any case , we understand that the enemy tried to advance to pokrovsk, this is precisely on... this august, at the beginning of september , separate brigades of ours were redeployed there for reinforcement, and now the dynamics it looks like the enemy on the one hand is trying to really move south, this is to bypass selidove, which is such an important element of the defense, and selidove is just really getting around trying to go around in several directions, it's just from the south, when the enemy attacks tsukurine, and actually that ... one of those well, dangerous movements of the enemy, but we saw the inclusion of

, but not to occupy pokrovsk itself, but they have the direction, the planned ugledar kurakhove pokrovsk fact and the fact that there are still tens of kilometers to pokrovsk, even to the administrative territory of pokrovsk, this means that in the conditions that are happening now, when the enemy is there advancing 100, 200, 500 m per day at the most, we understand that the issue of the approach to pokrovsk is very relative, especially... the information that we all know is probably not a secret either, that the speed of the enemy in this direction has slowed down a lot , and they now have a dilemma to try to expand the flanks as much as possible, since the strip they passed is quite so conditional, it is within 10-20 km, depending on the width, which means that it is fired by artillery from both sides, in fact. completely fire, fire control can be kept with the necessary availability of the appropriate means of destruction, and they are forced to expand the flanks, because they understand that the process of accumulation, that of artillery, that of the rszzo system, that of the troops

this is what a resident of pokrovsk says.te: you will go out the door, you will become a homeless person. well, it is unlikely that he is worried that his property will be needed by other pensioners of pokrovsk. but the ukrainian militants will definitely not give up looting, and they are not averse to equipping positions right in other people's apartments. the same thugs from the armed forces of ukraine occupy other people's apartments and turn them into fortified areas, that is, leaving people without housing further. this is what i wanted to say between the lines. this is a living resident of pokrovsk, people are used there as a shield one way or another, this is a method, it does not change, uh, unfortunately, they are not there, even the commanders who... true, there is not a single child, mostly pensioners, here is a middle-aged couple wrapping a tv in a blanket. it turns out that the reporters of ukrainian propaganda hid the children, fearing that they could then be forcibly evacuated. knowing the nature of the armed f

ukrainian propagandists write: "pokrovsk has become a shadow of itself."pares the audience for that the city will be surrendered? here are fragments of this report. the correspondent keeps trying to ask questions in the language, almost everyone answers him in russian. the residents of pokrovsk. attention, unian, she concludes that well and she makes a conclusion, she emphasizes this we will survive, we will return home, where home, based on her story. it turns out that she will return home to crimea, that is, she is just waiting to be released, at least her point of view was presented exactly like that. and here the unian correspondent is trying to talk to local residents who came to the well for water, but here the dialogue somehow does not work out, with questions the ukrainian propagandist is offered to go to the verkhovna rada. and ask, why our people, why in our country there is no resettlement program, do not act on... they bring for 2 weeks, they say, in 2 weeks you must free the gym, otherwise there may be some stable, then look for everything, th

no catastrophe will happen if pokrovsk is lost, this is 100%.ng all its forces and means to break through here in the pokrovsk direction, if... he is stopped now, he does not have large reserves to act in other directions. alexey evgenievich, and what does the loss of pokrovsk mean for ukraine, or more precisely, it would mean the loss of pokrovsk, because there is too much noise around, some say it is unimportant, others say it is of strategic importance. well, indeed, this is an extremely important city, firstly, it is a large city, the pre-war population of krasnoarmeysk, which was renamed pokrovsk by the ukrainian country, was more than 300,000 people. for a large industrial city, they say, now 50,000, even, yes, even now there are 50,000 left, and these people, apparently , will remain, although they are trying to steal from them children, to take them somewhere supposedly to the rear, but they are already waiting for us, to put it mildly, and i will remind you that it was in krasnoarmeysk that the first blood was spilled in donbass, there

will ukraine be able to keep pokrovsk?s center that is called the key to all of donbas? this question is currently being actively discussed in ukrainian and of western zmi. after the operational and tactical success that the enemy had. at the end of august , his activity in the pokrovsky area decreased. the russians have eight kilometers left to the city itself, but they are in no hurry to storm it head on. in an interview with the american television company tsnn, the commander-in-chief of the ukrainian armed forces, oleksandr syrskyi , said that the russian advance on the city had been stopped. we do everything in order not to lose the city. we are strengthening the defense in this direction. during the last six days, the enemy did not advance. forward and one meter in the direction pokrovska this is how our strategy works. however, the enemy shows high activity on the flanks. to the north of the pokrovsko-myrnograd conglomerate , the russians are advancing on turetsk, and this week they have sharply increased activity i

also, the day before , the house of the driver of the locomotive depot in pokrovsk came under artillery fire. but despite constant russian shelling, not a single passenger flight was canceled. in kharkiv accounting an ambulance paramedic who was injured during the russian shelling on september 1 died, the mayor of the city igor terikhov said. let me remind you that on september 1, russia fired more than a dozen ballistic missiles at kharkiv, including iskander and s-300. more than 40 people were injured, including seven children, new post offices, shops, sports complexes, a shopping center, a gas pipeline and private houses were damaged. a 67-year-old man died, and a woman suffered an explosive injury and shrapnel injuries hospitalized these are the consequences of enemy shelling in sadovoy, kherson region, kherson mayor roman mrochko reported. russian invaders also attacked a residential building in the regional center. a 14-year-old girl suffered numerous injuries. the child is in a serious condition in the hospital. it flew to us once, that's what. specifically, they were buzzing som

there is information that our guys are already on the outskirts of pokrovsk, is that true? do you have any details? yes, ruslan, good morning, indeed now. in the pokrovsk direction there is a wide front, it can even be divided into two parts, northern and southern, here in the northern part we really came very close to pokrovsk, now beyond novogrodovka, our advance detachments of assault troops moved there to the west, they have already secured sukhoi yar and lysovka, these are two populated areas that are in close proximity to pokrovsk, there to shosseinaya street, here from the eastern outskirts. there are literally five pokrovsks, so our connection is interrupted , now, yes, in general, the fighting is going on in lysovka and sukhoi yar - these are populated areas that are literally 5 km from the eastern outskirts pokrovsk, there from the highway street, this, if it concerns the northern part of the pokrovsk direction, in the southern part there are also quite fierce... here ukrainsk , according to some information, is already coming under our control, our fighters have

, although putin, i emphasize once again, dozens of times gave the task to capture pokrovsk, the bestces were thrown there, including landing forces, marines, special forces of the main intelligence agency of the russian federation, special forces of the fsb, various groups, so to speak, and its special units, as well as special operations forces, the national guard, and even the wagnerites , who seem to be experts in quotation marks, failed to capture cities, so now they are moving around on chickens. in the russian direction , they are looking for weak spots and further on, they are trying to push our troops there, who were actually moved there closer to pokrovska and at the moment to break through there, but we stabilized the situation, they advanced a little there, and even created a threat of semi-encirclement, but we are now striking from the flanks or with firepower where the concentration is, that is , more or less in the direction of pokrovska is really stabilized today, although it is changing, because after all, this direction remains the main one, but now we will move ever

of course, pokrovsk is also enough.krain district is like a city in itself, and therefore i can compare it with the possibilities of bakhmut or even from time to time, by the way, from the time of yar, it has held its defense even longer than bakhmut held its defense, and this is due to the relief and landscape features, since , for example, the channel became a serious obstacle for the russian invaders in the matter of crossing to the left bank and sunset in the zhopnev sector and the new one in the time gap, and we see the same situation now, it is emerging in the selidove area, where the relief and landscape features, as well as a fairly professionally formed defense, demonstrate that the russians there is no way they can break through from the east and the north into the city itself and start full-fledged urban battles with entrenchment in the city itself, and therefore pokrovsk, as well as mirnograd. they will be a serious problem for the russians, but they still need to be reached, because, for example, from novog

, because the russians are not moving directly to pokrovsk, they have a slight advance of 100-200 m there, they are trying harder to strengthen their flanks, this means, in particular, to push our troops to the east of the vovche river in order to align the front line along the populated areas of halysynivka, it is urgent, because otherwise, if they continue their movement to pokrovsk, this current that they are pulling out is at risk. would fall under a flank counterattack from the selidovo side of the ukrainian defense forces, so the russians can advance, they have a huge concentration of troops there, but as we can see, for example, moving in two directions, roughly speaking, towards ukrainian, towards porakhovo to the south and to pokrovsk they they cannot at the same time. in addition, if we are talking about the kursk operation, according to various estimates , about 60,000 russian personnel are already concentrated there, which the russians actually did not want in the long run. to withdraw reserves from ukraine, in particular, because they, after all, transferred their separate un

ukrainian territory, this is important, but let's start with the pokrovsk direction, which in terms of the number of combat engagements still remains in the first place, although the armed forces of the russian federation have stopped the advance towards pokrovsk, mirnograd and selidovoy, now we we can see it on our map, but we can hardly talk about a certain stabilization on it. ledge, which is about 30 km deep and 20 km wide, which was formed against the background of the advance of russian troops along the railway, starting from avdiyivka, it was in february, and then to the cheretyn advance, at the end of july, which was captured, and then to novogrodivka, which was captured by the enemy at the end of august, so it turned out that in the last month... the enemy had an advance of about 10 -13 km, and everyone said that the front is collapsing, and even the situation in the kurdistan region will not save us, but now the situation looks completely different, well, first of all, a number of our brigades blocked the advance of the enemy in the pokrov direction, and it turned out that we

, but then pokrovsk will be taken, they will be there for months, if they manage at all, because herew, it is very difficult to restrain them in a clear field, because any fortifications are field, they are carried out very quickly by these aerial bombs, but as soon as the battles begin in the urban areas, we can hold out there much longer and they pay there for this moving from house to house is much more expensive, i'm afraid that just pokrovsk will soon become part of this triad of chasiv, turetsk, pokrovsk, i.e. the cities where we actually stopped them. thank you very much. yevhen dykiy, the former platoon commander of the aidar battalion, a military analyst, was with us, thank you, a lot, quite optimistic opinions were expressed, but optimism is not enough, everyone is not enough, so we thank mr. yevhen, we go to commercials, after the commercials oleksandr kraev, we will take some such international context, not only purely ukrainian military, and international, so now advertising, and then... mr. oleksandr kraev, advertising. tingling, numbness, bother you? the dolgit antineur

well, however, the difference between pokrovsk and mirnograd is small. second, in fact, a satellite city of the first, located a little to the east, respectively, there is a frankly hackneyed approach to building a defense on what would seem to be a key section of the front, for which the military leadership of the junta allegedly intended to cling with their teeth, but in reality was too lazy to place banal dragon teeth there. well, in general, is it any wonder that even the western press, for example, the washington post, suggests that zelensky's gang consider pokrovsk effectively lost, and ukrainian publications reluctantly paint a very unambiguous picture. evgeniya petrukhina was taken in. evgeniya, hello. hello, alexey. well, what about the formulations about an indestructible fortress? forgotten. yes, that's right, this time rather devaluation. what is there to defend here? they show pokrovsk as destroyed and deserted, like everyone who wanted to leave has long since left. look, they say in their report, only stubborn pensioners are left. and pokro

ukrainian propagandists, here they write: "pokrovsk has become a shadow of itself."t prepares the audience for the fact that the city will be surrendered? here are fragments of this report. she concludes that well, we will survive, we will return home, where home, based on her history, it turns out that she will return home to crimea, that is, she is just waiting for her... they are used to hiding behind civilians as if they were living, that's what a resident of pokrovsk says. quote: you will go out the door, you will become a homeless person, well, it is unlikely that he is worried that his property will be needed by other pensioners of pokrovsk, but the ukrainian militants will definitely not refuse from looting, and they are not averse to equipping positions right in other people's apartments. the same thugs from the armed forces of ukraine occupy other people's apartments and turn them into fortified areas, that is, leaving people without further housing, that's it. shelter and basements, only no one opened the door for him there, someone hid there, who is waiti

near pokrovsk, there is another valuable asset for ukraine.oye lithium ore deposit, the demand for which has now increased sharply in the world. according to rough estimates , about 5 million tons of tontala, neobium, beryllium quartz oxides can be mined on almost 40 hectares of land. even before the war, the president's office were going to lure elon musk to lithium. now, just now, it means, in ukraine they are reporting that they are starting to build street fortifications in pokrovsk, for street fighting, directly, they are preparing for street, already urban fighting, this is their pokrovsk administration, it is approximately so to speak clear, that is, here the question is not to take, not to take, when, the question is not if, when, that's all, that's why they want to. say, we still need these people with the brand, you will still be in demand, you will still be heroes, they will still compose songs for you, let me ask you a question, i am very interested in it, really military-technical, we will ask germanovich now, he will tell us, in

of course you are worried that pokrovsk will fall? >> yes now, you've just had a change in your family life yes. one week ago, i became father. >> yes. now, i have a daughter elisabeth and it's big motivation for me. >> and it big reason to continue our fight maybe shaye is dislike changing my life my thoughts. >> this week big either know i can explain to how will it change, what's it making you think we're like runs possibility yeah more. >> it's understanding why why should we fight yes and i i do want that in my children will not fight i. do want that to my children's will not know what is what is war, what is fighting? yes. and i understand that i should continue that war so that will finish that and we'll win you fight so that your daughter will not have to find yeah, absolutely. >> bigger pleasure to have you on thank you so much. thanks to all of you for being part of my program from kyiv this week. i will see you next week the tv moments that culture over the edge. people are watching and our world change he had an explosive

separately. and on the topographic map, on this map, you can move it a little to the left so that pokrovskbetter visible, just, no, push it towards the temporal ravine, but a little, for a moment we were corrected so that pokrovsk and myrnogra were also visible, yes look, on this direction, on pokrovsky, you can say it is not a direction, but such a bundle of directions, yes, it is divided into several such sub-directions, we are global... it seems to me to leave here, yes, because i am not working no in russian, not in ukrainian to the general staff, the global goal of the russians is to go to pokrovsk in order to cut the pokrovsk kostyantynka road, it is sometimes called the road of life, they have already complicated logistics there, and why is it all being done, logistics is the blood of war, i forgot which american this is a quote from the general that intelligent... er, commanders study tactics and strategy there, and brilliant ones study logistics, because if a soldier has no shells, no ammunition, no food, no clothes , he cannot fight, no matter how heroic he is i wasn't, but now t

now the road network of pokrovsk is effectively cut off from neighboring cities, and this is in just days. what is happening in the pokrovsk direction, which is now strategically important, we find out from military correspondent vladimir razin. vladimir, hello. can you clarify about the bridges that we just showed, footage of their destruction. some military experts, here. if you look closely at the nature of the damage to this bridge, with these round holes, and in this bridge, of which there are quite a lot, if you count them, you come to the conclusion that we have some kind of analogue of the american hymers, only the holes are slightly larger than from hymers, because we remember very well how they, using this american installation, destroyed bridges, including trying to destroy the antonovsky bridge in the kherson direction, it didn’t work there, we have learned now, it turns out that if... repeatedly, including for the destruction of bridges in the kurakhovsky direction several months ago with fairly clear video recording, regarding the hymers analogues, this is really so, wh

, but nevertheless the pokrovsk direction remains key for hostilities, and what is happening, on the, having a serious wedge in our defense, he... is forced to defend his flanks, precisely because of the fact that, on the one hand , the pressure to the north of pokrovsk, in the kramatorsk direction, is decreasing. well, at the peak of order, according to the report of the state security service, today there were about eight combat clashes on turetsky 10, meanwhile, to the south of pokrovsk, to the southeast of pokrovsk, hostilities are very hot, on kurakhivsky 46, on pokrovsky 49 , what is this connected with, on the one hand , the enemy in order to... continue the offensive on pokrovsk and in order not to fall into the trap that the armed forces of ukraine are preparing for him, he must secure his left flank, the left flank, where there is a danger of counterattacks by our flanking forces, and that is why, in part, he directed his forces from here to selidove. and vice led to the south, where it tries to smooth out, so, let's say, the flanks are being created, but the map shows that

the russians are currently advancing very actively in the pokrovsk direction troops.k is under great threat and is about to be surrounded. now vysu is forced to send its reserves there to try to stabilize the front, but it seems that the ukrainian troops have not succeeded so far. military analyst alexander borisovich sharkovsky joins us. "hello, to what extent can the forecasts of western experts of the western media be true, that in fact they, the ukrainian side, are already preparing to defend the dnieper, dnepropetrovsk, and we can get there very quickly. so far we know, that pokrovsk is being evacuated, and very actively, and it is still more than 150 km to dnepropetrovsk, and there is no, as they say, empty and wild steppe, there are a lot of settlements there, which are located in belts, in principle, if the vso has reserves left, then they will be able to create some kind of defensive lines there and there are no fortifications like avdiivka there either, no, no, by the way, pokrovsk, they announced that they will fortify, in fact, no real work is happening th
