Details: DeepState analysts note that for the first time in a long time, the Russian forces carried out a mechanised assault, using heavy equipment to break through Ukrainian defences.

Quote DeepState: "And such an assault took place not out of the blue, but as part of a consistent attempt to break through after the earlier infiltration of an infantry group into Pokrovsk.

However, the place chosen for the assault remains a mystery, namely the area of the village of Shevchenko, instead of Zvirove, where the Katsaps found a weak point in the defence." [“Katsap” is a derogatory term for Russians used in Ukraine – ed.]

Details: Ukrainian fighters repelled the attack where the Russians used equipment that has long been an easy target for FPV drone crews, especially in open terrain.

Quote: “The enemy has always focused attention and accumulated additional resources, identifying weak points in our defence. So one should expect and be ready for such actions, but most likely, katsaps will advance with their largest resource – infantry.”
