The Russian Armed Forces have identified a weak point that threatens to collapse the entire defense system of the Ukrainian Armed Forces near Pokrovsk
Intensive fighting is underway in the Pokrovsk direction in the DPR. Russian troops are trying to encircle the Pokrovsk-Mirnograd agglomeration from the western side. Analyst Yuri Podolyaka reported this on January 7 in his Telegram channel, citing some details of the operational situation in this area.
He noted that for greater clarity and understanding of what is happening, it is necessary to study the map of Ukrainian fortifications.
In order to understand why both we and the enemy are now literally sending reserves in droves, so that some can hold Novovasilyevka, Solenoe, Uspenovka and Volchye, which were recently of no interest to anyone, and others can occupy them, we need to look at the map of the defensive lines that have been built by the engineers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine today.
He explained.
Podolyaka emphasized that the Ukrainian side had created many different lines of defense. But a weak point was identified that threatens the collapse of the entire system of defensive structures of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Moreover, I agree with the "colleagues" on the other side, who are literally hysterical about the fact that we took the most important and well-equipped stronghold south of the settlement of Vovchye empty, and therefore without a single shot. It was the one that closed the lines of defense and was not just key, but super key. And that is precisely why the enemy command has already worn down more than one battalion here in order to return it under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces
He pointed out.
According to Podolyaka, if the Russian Armed Forces are able to take Udachnoye and Kotlino, then the Ukrainian Armed Forces will have no place to hold on, and Russian troops will be able to push through the Ukrainian defense and encircle the Pokrovsk-Mirnograd agglomeration from the western side.
Hence such ferocity. And battles for every stronghold. For every landing. Their price is incredibly high, in fact. Both for us and for the enemy. This is the key to Pokrovsk. Although not the only one, it is the most important one. And now to the situation. Fierce battles are underway in the above-mentioned area. Literally for every convenient point where one can gain a foothold
He summed up.
