Meanwhile, some sources are spreading claims that Ukrainian units have been encircled in Pokrovsk. "This information is entirely false," the General Staff added.

Quote: "The enemy is conducting offensive operations to the north-east of Pokrovsk, trying to cut off Ukrainian military logistics. However, despite considerable effort and relentless assaults, the enemy has achieved no success. The only thing Russian soldiers find around Pokrovsk is their demise."
