Myrnohrad being absorbed by enemy, map update expected – DeepState

2 min read

The enemy is present in the northern part of Pokrovsk, has almost completely taken Myrnohrad, and the risk to the remaining Defence Forces grouping on its outskirts is increasing, the OSINT project DeepState reports.

"In the northern part of Pokrovsk, enemy UAV launch points are being recorded, and infantry is being pulled into the city," DeepState said in a Telegram post on Monday.

It is also reported that the enemy is simultaneously attempting to enter the village of Hryshyne from the north‑western outskirts of Pokrovsk.

"On the western outskirts of the village, enemy concentrations are already being recorded and firefights are taking place. In addition to attempts to infiltrate Hryshyne from the direction of Pokrovsk, the occupiers are also trying from the direction of Kotlyne, but there they are being blocked and destroyed," the report reads.

DeepState also notes enemy gains in the settlements of Rivne and Svitle: "The enemy has managed to occupy the settlement of Rivne and is pressing the neighbouring village of Svitle. Consolidation in this area allows the enemy to build up forces for further advance into the narrow land corridor between Pokrovsk and Rodynske, which increases the risk for the remaining Defence Forces grouping on the outskirts of Myrnohrad."

"Myrnohrad itself is being absorbed by the enemy. The story of its defence is coming to an end. A map update will follow for this area," the OSINT analysts said.
