The Pokrovsk direction remains one of the hottest on the front. The Russians are storming Ukrainian positions around the clock, sometimes even without breaks at night. The number of assaults in the Pokrovsk direction is consistently high. The Russians are managing to put

pressure thanks to new tactics. Ivan Sekach, press officer of the 110th separate mechanized brigade named after General-ensign Mark Bezruchko, told in more detail about it. Active combat operations are underway in the Pokrovsk direction, in the

Myrnohrad area. Russian troops do not give up their attempts to break through the defense of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and are looking for weak spots in it. The front is ablaze. Assaults are happening constantly. On the night of August 18, 12 units of equipment stormed us.

Several units were destroyed and damaged. The infantry was scattered and ran through the plantings. They were then actively destroyed, - said Ivan Sekach. There is no weakening of pressure from the enemy in the Pokrovsk direction. According to the General Staff of the

Ukrainian Armed Forces, on average, about 50 assaults are taking place in this section of the front. "Our brigade has been in this direction since the end of April. Since then, the number of assaults has not changed, they occur several dozen times a day. Here we need to

clarify: these are not two-hour assaults, they are constant," the military man noted. The enemy uses the tactics of small groups that operate virtually around the clock. Only sometimes at night is there a respite, because the Russians need technical support. The Russian

military is trying to accumulate forces and resources in order to storm the Ukrainian positions. However, in general, the tactics of the Russians have changed. "Meat assaults" are now a rare story. They now conduct assaults in small assault groups: 5-6 groups (2-3 people

in each) simultaneously go within a one-kilometer interval. It is very difficult for artillery to destroy such moving targets, especially when we are talking about such a small number of people, then a lot of shells are spent on their destruction, Sekach noted. Also, FPV

drones cannot always work on the enemy. For example, when the Russians are in the plantings, the work of drones becomes virtually impossible. However, the skill of the artillerymen and the Ukrainian infantry still give the enemy a rebuff. It is also worth noting that the

Russians have no problems with the number of drones. They have enough Mavics and FPV drones. "Sometimes it happens that as many as 20 "wings" are circling in the Pokrovsk region. Our brigade recently received new weapons, we began to shoot them down more actively, and

they began to fly less. But when necessary, they again raise up to 20 "wings" into the sky at the same time," said the press officer of the 110th OMBR.

1/8 Getting a taste of their own medicine: Ukraine is increasingly targeting russians with their own glide and rocket-assisted bombs. Image
2/8 Recently, several videos have surfaced showcasing Ukrainian strikes on russian troops and infrastructure using glide bombs and rocket-assisted bombs. The bridges in the Kursk region serve as a notable example. Image
3/8 Ukraine has integrated JDAM-ER, GBU-39 Paveway IV, and Hammer bombs into its MiG-29 fleet. The introduction of the F-16 is expected to enhance these missions as well. Additionally, Ukraine is working on developing its own glide bombs. Image

The Ukrainians destroyed the third bridge over the Seim River. Now, the supply of Russian troops in the Glushkovsky district is possible only through pontoons and by boats. In this direction, Russian troops are commanded by General Alexander Lapin, who led the crossing of the

Vladimir Putin is unlikely to announce mobilization, but will continue to use conscripts to replenish the army. A survey in Russia showed that the level of public anxiety after Ukraine's entry into Kursk increased less than it was when mobilization was announced.

Putin considers mobilization even more dangerous for the government than the loss of the Kursk region, even in its entirety. The problems of the Kursk region in the eyes of Russians remain regional problems, and they will even survive the loss of the region as a whole.

Mobilization will come to almost every home. There are still enough regions in Russia, but mobilization violates the unspoken agreement that was formed under Putin - the people turn a blind eye to the theft of the government, and in exchange, the government does not touch

Russia advances in the Pokrovsk direction and Putin is clinging to this success and is in no hurry to transfer contract soldiers from these directions to the Kursk region. He has already withdrawn some forces from the Zaporizhzhia region and the Kharkiv direction,

but first of all, the Russian army is sending conscripts to resolve the situation. Reports of conscripts being sent come from different regions of the country - Murmansk, Irkutsk, Tyumen, Samara, Belgorod, Leningrad and Moscow regions. Many immediately after only completing

Putin is putting pressure on Lukashenko in an attempt to influence the situation at the front. After the start of the Kursk operation, Lukashenko also spoke about Ukrainian drones that had flown into the country. On August 10, the Belarusian Foreign Ministry summoned the

Chargé d'Affaires of Ukraine in Minsk, Olga Timush, and handed her a note of protest. Then the Foreign Ministry appealed to the UN Security Council and the OSCE. The Belarusian Foreign Ministry issued a special statement dedicated to the offensive of the Ukrainian army on

the Kursk region. It said that "such actions" of the Ukrainian side "lead to escalation and only delay the prospects of ending the conflict, which the Belarusian side has consistently called for." We can recall that Lukashenko shook a little with a Russian nuclear bomb. Also
