Inside Ukraine's efforts to hold the front lines at Pokrovsk | DW News

Day by day, Russian forces are pushing closer to the eastern Ukraine city of Pokrovsk, which is of great strategic importance as a logistic hub for road and rail. Defending this key city is vital for Ukraine, but the situation is growing increasingly critical.

That city is about to be declared unstrategic by western media😂😂😂

[adrianmuresan]

When he admits the situation is difficult the city is already lost .

[wakenyaskytv]

At this rate Russia will run out of flags

[arielalonso]

Russia no longer has missiles, soldiers, or weapons and its economy is bankrupt. DW said it a year ago. 🤣🤣

[basedchad]

With this mindset, Pokrovsk might fall earlier than we think.

[francisverm]

Important to point out that those SAME “EXPERTS” thought the same of Avdiivka…

[Abdulkadir-bdjw]

Most Western so called analyst underestimate The Russians

[tradewiththelogic]

Russia is retreating forward and Ukraine is advancing backwards... Ukraine is definitely winning

All is not well. Nick Connolly's demeanour is grim.

Pokrovsk.will not be as drawn out as Bakhmut. There are fewer Ukrainians to defend Pokrovsk. A lot of them were slaughtered in Bakhmut, when they should have withdrawn; more were lost in the hare brained counter offensive of 2023, and more are pinned and slaughtered in the even more brainless Kursk incursion.

Connolly is clueless as to why Zelensky is firing his team.

5:35 ‘’most Ukrainians don’t want elections’’, according to which survey?

[williamlevy]

It's inevitable that "Ukraine" will lose control of that area. It's inevitable "Ukraine" will have no option but to accept a treaty recognizing it's territory has been significantly REDUCED. Is more debt and death required to accept REALITY ?

Europe really needs to thank Victoria and the other us politicians responsible for building a Russian army on their doorstep that specializes in taking fortified cities. Just brilliant.

[prizefighter]

So technically kursk was a waste of resources and human lives

[arcadyskoit]

It’s amazing what shovels can do!
Zelensky has no idea!

[IK_MK]

They weren't even supposed to reach pokrovsk this early... Kursk troops are being missed now

That Russian Shovels are powerfull, indeed...

[kaltmorgen]

Ukrs gave up Pokrovsk front for a few selfies in Kursk

[joyaku]

This is what Russian shovel can do😂😂😂😂

[danielchee]

Useless to sugar coat the true situation on the ground. Just call a spade a spade.

[Martincic]

The question now is just knowing when the total collapse will happen.
