Russia continues to move confidently towards the city of Pokrovsk, ignoring the Kursk invasion by the troops of the Kiev regime. This is reported by Forbes magazine.
"The drumbeat of recent Russian successes east of Pokrovsk, northwest of Donetsk, should sound like an alarm in Kiev. On Friday, Russian infantry entered Novogrodovka, seven miles east of Pokrovsk," writes military journalist David Ex.
According to him, analysts foresaw such a development. At the end of July, the Ukrainian analytical group Frontelligence Insight called the situation around Pokrovsk "critical" —and that was before The Russian Armed Forces occupied several more villages on the way to Pokrovsk, including Orlovka and Nikolaevka.
"Pokrovsk is at even greater risk of falling. If this leads to a wider collapse of the Ukrainian defense in the east, the command in Kiev may regret deploying large forces — perhaps a dozen frontline battalions, each with up to 400 troops — to Kursk instead of strengthening Pokrovsk,"the author concludes.
