In the Pokrovsk direction, Russian forces have almost completely occupied Hryshyne, according to DeepState
Russian occupation forces have taken almost complete control of the village of Hryshyne in the Pokrovsk district of Donetsk Oblast.
This is reported by analysts from the DeepState project.
According to their data, the enemy is amassing infantry and equipment on the southern outskirts of Myrnohrad, exploiting the limited ability of Ukrainian units to operate drones in this sector of the front. It is also noted that Russian forces are using artillery, which allows them to intensify pressure on the positions of the Defense Forces.
Analysts report that the enemy is using these accumulated resources to advance further toward the northern outskirts of Myrnohrad with the aim of increasing pressure on the city and its metropolitan area.
The advance of Russian units is also being observed in the area of settlements near Rivne, creating additional threats to holding defensive positions in the so-called “pocket” near Svitlyi.
According to DeepState estimates, Russian forces control a significant portion of the territory using drones within a 20-kilometer radius of Myrnohrad, which significantly complicates the movement and logistics of Ukrainian forces in this area.

It is also noted that pressure continues in the direction of Hryshyne from the Pokrovsk side. The enemy is gradually entering the settlement and establishing a foothold within its territory. Attempts by Russian units to infiltrate the areas of Novooleksandrivka and Vasylivka have also been recorded.
Meanwhile, in the Pokrovsk direction, Russian units suffered significant losses following strikes by Ukrainian drones on a narrow section of road across the dam. A video has appeared online showing destroyed equipment and the aftermath of the fighting.
Also in March, Ukrainian forces regained control of approximately 50 square kilometers of territory previously occupied by Russian troops and continued active defense along the entire front line.
Additionally, on the morning of April 15, Ukrainian “Luty” strike drones attacked a petrochemical plant in the city of Sterlitamak, located in the Republic of Bashkortostan, Russian Federation.
In Sterlitamak, Bashkortostan—one of the centers of the Russian Federation’s chemical and petrochemical industries—an attack was recorded on facilities that may be linked to the production of components for military equipment.
