This is reported by DeepState.

"In recent days, the area around the village of Pivnichne has become a new hotspot. The exact reason for the failure of the defense is still unknown," the report says.

According to analysts, as of the end of June 21, the Russian troops had advanced along the street parallel to the railroad.

In addition, the invading forces occupied the village of Shumy, a pumping station and stockpile 1. They have also been spotted near stockpile 2, and small arms fire in the area is not abating.

"The Russian troops will try to build on their tactical success by bringing additional reserves to the area. Their goal is obvious - to take Toretsk," the analysts added.

• Over the past day, Ukrainian defenders killed at least 1,110 Russian soldiers. In addition, the Russian army lost dozens of units of its equipment.
