The Operation Task Force East reported this on Facebook, according to Ukrinform.

According to the statement, Ukrainian defenders are eliminating the enemy on the approaches to the city.

Logistics to Myrnohrad remain complicated. The Defense Forces are taking measures to expand logistical corridors to the city.

The northern part of Pokrovsk remains under the control of Ukrainian defenders. Russian army advances in the central part of the city are being successfully blocked.

Overall, since the start of the day, defenders in the area of responsibility of the Operation Task Force East have repelled 66 Russian assaults. Active actions by Ukrainian units in the Pokrovsk–Myrnohrad agglomeration are ongoing, and the invaders are suffering significant losses.

As Ukrinform previously reported, on the Pokrovsk direction Russian forces have already attempted 20 times today to push the Defense Forces from their positions near Shakhove, Pankivka, Nykanorivka, Myrnohrad, Rodynske, Pokrovsk, Kotlyne, Udachne, Novoserhiivka, and Dachne.
