Russia Advances in Ukraine, 'Mad Max' Tactics

Russian forces make significant advances in eastern Ukraine, using fog as cover, with hundreds of troops moving through Pokrovsk and Kupiansk. Ukrainian forces engage in fighting within Pokrovsk, while Russia aims to advance north towards Kramatorsk and Sloviansk. Moscow and Kyiv offer differing accounts of the battle, with Russia claiming Pokrovsk is surrounded and Ukraine denying it. Open-source maps show Russia executing a pincer movement around Pokrovsk, with Ukraine launching counter-attacks around Dobropillia. Russia concentrates approximately one hundred and fifty thousand troops for this push. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered. Hosted on Acast.
