Details: Operational Command noted that additional logistical routes to Pokrovsk and Myrnohrad are being organised to ensure uninterrupted supply of everything needed for Ukrainian units.

Overall, Russian occupation forces lost 517 personnel in the area of responsibility of Operational Command Skhid (East) over the past day.

Background:

  • Earlier, a senior NATO official, speaking before a ministerial meeting of the Alliance, told European Pravda that Myrnohrad is "almost encircled", and that the Russians control more than 95% of Pokrovsk.
  • A NATO assessment indicates that it is now possible to state that "Myrnohrad is practically fully encircled". "There is a narrow corridor through which the Ukrainians can withdraw certain forces, but it is indeed a very narrow corridor, and even it is under [the Russian's] fire advantage. So overall it is an encirclement, although not yet a complete one," the NATO official said.
  • Ukraine's General Staff reported that over the past day on the Pokrovsk front, Ukrainian defenders repelled 52 Russian assault actions near the settlements of Volodymyrivka, Maiak, Rodynske, Chervonyi Lyman, Novoekonomichne, Pokrovsk, Kotlyne, Udachne, Molodetske and Dachne and towards Novopavlivka.
