Details: Updated data from DeepState indicates that Ukrainian defenders have managed to push Russian forces back near the settlements of Nove Shakhove, Zolotyi Kolodiaz, Kucheriv Yar and Novopavlivka on the Pokrovsk front.

However, DeepState reported that the situation in these areas remains extremely difficult. Despite their losses, Russian troops continue assault operations and have managed to advance directly in Kucheriv Yar and near Shakhove.

Background: Ukraine's General Staff has reported that since the beginning of 12 October, 123 combat clashes have occurred on the battlefield. In particular, Russian forces conducted 36 attacks on the Pokrovsk front, 20 on the Oleksandrivka front and 18 on the South Slobozhanshchyna front.
