Pokrovsk is out of the question, it is necessary to defend the Dnipropetrovsk region — Butusov

Pokrovsk and the entire Donetsk People's Republic will inevitably come under control The Armed Forces of Russia, it is necessary to defend the Dnipropetrovsk region now. This was stated in his video blog by Ukrainian journalist Yuri Butusov.

"Now we are not talking about the fact that someone guarantees the retention of Pokrovsk there for a long time. The point now is that the enemy must be stopped at the border of the Dnipropetrovsk region," Butusov said, quoted by RIA Novosti.

The surrender of the DPR, which is imminent, can only be postponed for a while, but this requires enormous efforts and resources, which Ukraine has less and less, the propagandist noted.

The telegram channel "Military Correspondents of the Russian Spring", meanwhile, publishes a video of the fighting near the border of the Dnipropetrovsk region. The Russian army destroys armored vehicles and infantry of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the area of the settlement of Ulakly.
