Ukraine is gradually withdrawing units from Vovcha River’s eastern bank — military expert Zgurets

He shared the information on Espreso TV.

“When we talk about the Hirnyk-Krasnohorivka area, we are referring to the Karlivka-Nevelske-Krasnohorivka triangle, where our units are stationed. After capturing Nevelske and advancing towards Krasnohorivka and west of Krasnohorivka, the enemy has visually surrounded our forces in this area,” noted Zgurets.

According to the expert, however, Russia’s potential is not sufficient to close these “pincers” quickly.

“We are now rationally and gradually withdrawing our units from this area located on the eastern bank of the Vovcha River. The threats were clear before, and I hope that the General Staff is also aware of them and understands the risks. However, I know that our units usually go out almost at the last moment,” emphasized Zgurets.

• Officer with Ukraine’s 59th Separate Motorized Infantry Brigade, Serhiy Tsehotskyi, noted that the number of Russian infantry has increased in the Pokrovsk sector, changing their tactics of assaults.
• Volunteer Vlad Makhovskyi noted that many people are trying to leave the Kurakhove community because of fear, shelling and rising death toll.
