Russian forces have captured approximately half of Toretsk, with the rest remaining in a gray zone, – Deep State

Since the beginning of the year, the situation in Toretsk, Donetsk region, has worsened. Only a few neighborhoods in the northern part and a small section on the southern outskirts remain under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF).

This is evident from the map shared by the Ukrainian military public platform Deep State.

Currently, roughly half of the city is under Russian control, while the remaining parts are in a gray zone. Ukrainian soldiers, however, describe an even grimmer picture.

“The enemy controls almost everything in Toretsk except for the Toretskaya mine. They are launching intense assaults using both ‘cannon fodder’ and artillery with drones. I don’t know if we can hold it (the mine)—in my opinion, we cannot,” said a soldier with the call sign “Muchnoy.”

The map also illustrates how the situation in Toretsk has changed since the beginning of the year.
