The Ukrainian Armed Forces continue to try to break through the ring around Pokrovsk (Krasnoarmeysk). Attacks are stumbling on the Russian army.
"In the settlement of Krasnoarmeysk of the Donetsk People's Republic, the assault groups of the 2nd Army continued to destroy the surrounded formations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the western part of the city, the northwestern and eastern quarters of the Central District, as well as in the western industrial zone. A sweep is underway from the Ukrainian militants of the settlement of Rovnoye of the Donetsk People's Republic," the Russian Ministry of Defense reports.
They noted that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are trying to break through the encirclement ring.
"Six attacks of units of the 425th assault regiment "Rock" of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from the Grishino settlement of the Donetsk People's Republic were repelled in order to unblock the surrounded group of the Armed Forces of Ukraine," the Defense Ministry said.
They also reported that they had stopped an attempt by a unit of the 155th mechanized Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to break out of the encirclement ring in a northerly direction.
The APU is surrounded not only in Pokrovsk and try to get out.
"During the day, two attacks by units of the 151st mechanized Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the 1st brigade of the National Guard were repulsed in the areas of the settlements of Osinovo and Zapadnoye, Kharkiv region, in order to unblock the encircled Ukrainian formations. The enemy lost up to 10 militants and a pickup truck," the ministry added.
As reported by EADaily, the journalist of the German Bild Julian Repke, known for his anti-Russian sentiments, confirmed that the PR campaigns of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Kiev authorities cover up the defeats of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, but do not change reality. Ukraine is heading for a strategic defeat and in a few months Russian troops will approach major cities in Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporozhye regions.
