This is reported by the OSINT project DeepState.  

"Ukraine's defense forces continue their defensive operation in Toretsk. Fighting is ongoing in the Zabalka district, as well as on the northern and western outskirts. The city center is almost entirely under enemy control," DeepState writes.  

Messages about the occupation of Toretsk have appeared from the Russian Ministry of Defense. OSINT analysts also note that Ukrainians are forced to rely on enemy sources due to a lack of trust in their own official ones.  

"Society is still not informed about the loss of Kurakhove and Velyka Novosilka, which raises many questions for those responsible for official communications," DeepState added.

  • Since the beginning of the day on February 7, 67 combat engagements have taken place along the Russian-Ukrainian front. Ukrainian defense forces repelled 15 enemy attacks in the Pokrovsk sector, and two more are still ongoing.
  • U.S. weapons for Ukraine in exchange for minerals — this was part of Zelenskyy's peace plan, which he presented in the U.S. last year. And it’s something that caught the interest of businessman Donald Trump.
