Kiev: Russia seems to be getting major success in the ongoing war with Ukraine. The Russian army is moving towards capturing the important city of Pokrovsk in Ukraine. The Russian army has reached very close (three kilometers) to Ukraine’s transit hub Pokrovsk. Ukrainian Army General Oleksandr Sirsky admitted that fighting was intensifying near the city. Sirsky said that Russian soldiers are trying with all their might to break our defense line but his forces are thwarting Russian attacks on Pokrovsk. According to the Firstpost report, continued for the last 34 months (February 2022) There have been many ups and downs in the war between Russia and Ukraine, but Pokrovsk going into the hands of Russia would be a big blow to Ukraine. The city is the gateway between eastern and central Ukraine. The city is also the industrial center of Ukraine and the main point of logistics supply. In such a situation, the importance of this city is very high for Ukraine. In such a situation, Ukrainian analysts were constantly warning of the Russian threat to this city. ‘Ukraine’s hold on a large area will be broken’ According to the report, due to Russia’s capture of Pokrovsk city, Ukraine’s supply lines will be broken and its defense capability will be weakened. Will go. Donetsk province, along with Luhansk in the Donbass region of eastern Ukraine, has been the main target of Russia’s war. With this, this goal of Russia can be achieved. The fall of Pokrovsk would jeopardize Ukraine’s hold on the entire region. Russia’s capture of Pokrovsk will open a new front for it to attack deep into Ukraine and take control of other strategic cities including Kiev. This could also open the way for the Russian army to reach Kiev. The population of Pokrovsk city was about 60 thousand before the start of the current war, in which some houses have been abandoned. Now the siege by Russian forces has once again increased panic among the people. The Russian army is trying to penetrate Ukraine’s defense by deploying large numbers of troops. The Ukrainian Army is countering this with the help of Western countries. Zelensky’s concern has increased. The concern of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is continuously increasing. One reason for this is what will happen to the billions of dollars of military aid received from America after the oath of newly elected US President Donald Trump on January 20, 2025. This aid is playing an important role in stopping Russia.
