Ukrainian defense forces repelled a large-scale offensive by Russian invaders in the Pokrovsk area. Ukrainian troops maintain control over key positions and have prevented the enemy from advancing.
This was reported on Telegram by the 7th Rapid Reaction Corps of the Airborne Assault Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The enemy became active on several fronts simultaneously within the 7th Airborne Assault Corps’ defense zone, attempting to break through the defenses by leveraging mobility and the use of military equipment.
On the outskirts of Hryshyne, the Russians launched an assault using motorized vehicles, attempting to quickly reach the settlement. The attack was repelled by units of the 155th Separate Mechanized Brigade and the 32nd Separate Mechanized Brigade. The enemy suffered losses and was stopped by Ukrainian troops on the approaches to Hryshyne.
At the same time, in the Mirnograd area, the invaders moved in motorized vehicles, attempting to advance and break through to Rodynske. The threat was neutralized through the coordinated efforts of the 7th Corps and the 1st Corps of the National Guard of Ukraine "Azov."
In particular, soldiers from the 79th Separate Airborne Assault Tavriya Brigade and the 14th Special Operations Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine "Chervona Kalyna" engaged the invaders.
