Russia said on Wednesday that its forces were advancing north inside Pokrovsk in a drive to take full control of the Ukrainian city, but the Ukrainian army said its units were battling hard to try to stop the Russians from gaining new ground.
Ukraine has acknowledged that its troops face a difficult position in the strategic eastern city, once an important transport and logistics hub for the Ukrainian army...
Russia sees the city as the gateway to its capture of the remaining 10%, or 5,000 square km (1,930 square miles) of Ukraine's eastern industrial Donbas region...
The Russian defence ministry said two assault groups were destroying Ukrainian troops that were surrounded in several districts of the city and continuing an offensive pushing north through it. Russian forces were clearing Ukrainian troops from settlements on Pokrovsk's southeastern flank and had repelled Ukrainian attempts to break out of encirclement.
The Ukrainian military denied that its troops were surrounded in Pokrovsk. It said they were trying to stop Russian soldiers from digging in while seeking to secure and protect logistics routes in the wider area.
"Measures are being taken to block the enemy, which is attempting to infiltrate and accumulate in the city of Pokrovsk," the Ukrainian General Staff said in a statement.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Monday the area around Pokrovsk remained under severe pressure but that up to 300 Russian servicemen still in the city had made no gains in the past day and there were just 60 in another city, Kupiansk.
Ukrainian units were trapped in "cauldrons" in both locations, it said, and their position was deteriorating rapidly while Russian forces advanced, "leaving no chance for Ukrainian servicemen to save themselves other than by voluntary surrender".

While many Ukrainians, particularly in the east, speak Russian as a native language, virtually all identify themselves as Ukrainian.
“People are losing their lives right now. Ukrainians are fighting against this regime from Russia and it’s really devastating,” she said. “Today I think everybody is Ukrainian.”

Overall Casualties in the Offensive Area: Analysts and leaked documents suggest the Russian forces of the “Center Grouping of Forces” attacking the Pokrovsk area have suffered around 104,000 casualties (killed, wounded, and missing) between January and September 2025, with at least 47,000 confirmed as dead. Some sources suggest the total number of casualties could be well over 100,000.

From the POS troll who posts Wikipedia garbage on Free Republic.
In order to attack conservative icons.
I'd guess the War will Drone on, and by the New Year, the Ukrainians in Pokrovsk won't answer their phones.
The Brit Tabloid press will move on to soliciting clicks with sensationalized headlines about the next effectively surrounded pocket of sacrificial Ukrainians.
And the Russians will again offer to return the bodies of several thousand Ukrainian soldiers.
ROTFLMAO!
