An airstrike has destroyed the road connecting Selidove and Pokrovsk. As a result, the Russians have lost the ability to use this route to infiltrate Pokrovsk in light vehicles."

Details: The Ukrainian military said additional defences are being installed in other areas, and that the troops being sent by the Russian command to clear these barriers are "dead men walking".

Background: Russian forces raised their flag at the Myrnohrad coal mine in the city of Myrnohrad on 13 November, but Ukrainian troops destroyed it and prevented the Russians from gaining a foothold in the city.
