Serhiy Dobriak, Pokrovsk’s military administration head, said Russian forces were at about 7 kilometres from the town, which is a key logistics hub in Ukraine’s east
Russia knocked out around 80 per cent of critical infrastructure in the town of Pokrovsk, a key logistics hub in Ukraine’s east, as Moscow’s troops inched forward, a local official said on Friday.
Russia forces have focused some of their heaviest assaults in recent weeks on Pokrovsk, which could allow it to consolidate and advance the front line in the region. Some 13,050 residents remain in the town and Ukrainian officials are pressing on with an evacuation plan that has been going on for some weeks. Just a month and a half ago, the town hosted more than 48,000 people, he said.
