The Russian Federation occupied Kurakhove, advanced near three settlements of Donetsk region and is located 2 km from Pokrovsk

Russian troops occupied Kurakhove in Donetsk region. About this reported analysts of the DeepState project. According to their data, the Russians have also advanced in the districts of Andriivka, Solony, and Novosilka.
“The enemy occupied Kurakhove, and also advanced near Andriivka, Solony, and Novosilka”, the message says.
In addition, Serhiy Dobryak, the head of Pokrovska OVA reportedthat the city and its surroundings are constantly being shelled by the Russians. The infrastructure of Pokrovsk has been destroyed, but about 7,000 residents remain in the city. The distance to the enemy positions was reduced to two kilometers.
Dobryak also noted that the security situation is worsening every day. The Russian Federation uses drones, artillery, mortars and aerial bombs for shelling. There is no electricity, gas or water supply in the city; only separate water distribution points are working.
The evacuation of the population has slowed down a lot: if in December, about 3,000 people left the city in eight days, now only 5-10 people leave every day. There are no more children among the city’s residents.
According to the information of the General Staff, in the Pokrovsky direction, since the beginning of the day, Russian troops have made 49 attempts to dislodge Ukrainian defenders. Defense forces are holding back the onslaught, repulsing 30 attacks, with 19 battles still ongoing at press time.
