it wants to do it before the rainy season, because then it will be very difficult to carry out assaults. This was stated on air by Vlas, an officer of the 1st separate detachment of the separate special purpose unit "OMEGA". According to him, it is obvious that the Russians' 2/8

I know, the enemy is not trying to push the troops to the Kursk direction or anywhere else, on the contrary, they have a lot of reserves here," the soldier said. The occupiers constantly carry out assaults in small groups and try to gain a foothold, but the Ukrainian 4/8
defenders do not give them such an opportunity. "They keep coming and coming in small groups, trying to gain a foothold somewhere, but our unit is doing everything to ensure that the enemy does not succeed in this in any area. "They are just trying to gain a foothold, and we 5/8
immediately knock them out," the officer noted. Sergei Tsekhotsky, an officer of the 59th separate motorized infantry brigade, said that the Russian occupiers are attempting to bypass Pokrovsk and strike at the flanks. The situation in this area of the front is tense, but 6/8
under control. It was previously reported that the pace of the Russian troops' advance in the Pokrovsk direction of the front is not very high and may decrease in the future due to weather conditions. At the moment, the enemy does not seem to be advancing particularly 7/8
far into the city of Pokrovsk itself, but there is a serious danger for the settlements to the south. 8/8

Russia's "nuclear threat" exploded in a launch silo last week. But the elections in the United States are also being watched in Russia. It seems that Putin has one last bet - Donald Trump and he is counting on the fact that if Trump wins, US aid to Ukraine will be stopped.
