Russian forces advanced near Vuhledar, in the Pokrovske and Toretsk directions – Deep State

Russian forces have advanced in the Pokrovsk and Toretsk directions.

This is evidenced by a map from the military resource Deep State.

Significant progress has been recorded near Karlivka, where the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) had established a large fortified area, relying on the Karlivka Reservoir.

Additionally, Russian forces have made substantial advances in the Kostyantynivka area near Vuhledar. Kostyantynivka is a crucial defensive point for the UAF to the northeast of Vuhledar and southeast of Kurakhove.

A Ukrainian Armed Forces officer with the call sign “Alex” wrote that in the Vuhledar direction, Russian forces launched strong assaults in the morning using armored vehicles, and heavy fighting is ongoing.

Earlier, it was reported that Russian forces are attempting to block Karlivka from the west. If successful, the UAF would have to withdraw from the area to avoid encirclement.

As a reminder, the Deep State public channel previously reported that Russian forces had advanced in the Pokrovsk direction, reaching the city center of Novogrodovka.
