Defence Forces repel hundreds of attacks and hold back enemy advance near Pokrovsk
Over the past 24 hours, record levels of combat have been recorded along the frontline, with 286 clashes with enemy forces.
This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The situation remains most intense in the Pokrovsk and Kostiantynivka sectors, where Ukrainian defenders are holding off continuous assaults.
According to official data, the invaders are actively using aviation and long-range strike systems to pressure Ukrainian positions. Yesterday, they carried out 78 air strikes, employing 257 guided bombs and over 7,400 kamikaze drones of various types.
Massive shelling affected dozens of settlements in the Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhzhia regions. In particular, enemy aviation targeted Orestopil, Huliaipilske, and Orikhiv, attempting to disrupt logistics and Ukrainian defensive lines.
On the Pokrovsk front, Ukrainian troops demonstrated remarkable resilience, repelling 72 enemy assault actions. Fighting took place in Myrnohrad, Pokrovsk, Udachne, and several other settlements, where the enemy attempted to breach the frontline.
The Kostiantynivka front was similarly tense, with 46 enemy attacks recorded. The invaders attempted to advance in Kostiantynivka, Sofiivka, and Ivanopillia, but the Defence Forces decisively repelled them and retained control of their positions.
On the Kupiansk front, the enemy launched 18 attacks near Petropavlivka, Hlushkivka, and Novoplatonivka. Despite their numerical advantage, Ukrainian units inflicted significant losses on enemy personnel through effective fire strikes.
In response, Ukrainian aviation and artillery targeted three drone control points and three areas where enemy forces were concentrated. These actions have significantly reduced the enemy’s offensive potential and disrupted battlefield coordination.
It should be recalled that the Ukrainian Armed Forces eliminated another 1,710 enemy troops over the past day. They also struck drone depots and enemy bases in three regions.
