Russian attempts to advance covertly toward Hryshyne, northwest of Pokrovsk, amid fog and drizzle have been unsuccessful. Air Assault Forces units are engaging enemy targets even before they reach the settlement.

According to Ukrinform, the 7th Rapid Response Corps of the Air Assault Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported this on Telegram.

Russian attempts to advance covertly toward Hryshyne, northwest of Pokrovsk, under cover of fog and drizzle have been unsuccessful, the report states.

Units in the 7th Rapid Response Corps of the Air Assault Forces’ area of control are engaging enemy targets even as they approach the settlement.

According to preliminary information, the Defense Forces eliminated a company-level officer in the Hryshyne area. This caused disorganization among enemy units and reduced their combat capabilities.

As reported by Ukrinform, the  7th Rapid Response Corps said that, after unsuccessful attempts to bypass Hryshyne, located near Pokrovsk, Russian troops are now attempting to attack it with a frontal assault.
