The Ukrainian military holds control over the city of Kurakhovo in the Pokrovsky district of Donetsk region, despite the active attempts of Russian troops to break the defense. According to the spokesman of the operative-strategic group of Khortytsa troops Nazar Voloshin, during the last day the enemy made 40 assault attempts in this direction, but they were all reflected.
The sabotage groups and tactics of the enemy,
as noted by Voloshin, Russian sabotage and intelligence groups are trying to break into the city, but the Ukrainian military destroy them on the approaches. The enemy seeks to establish control of dominant heights near Kurakhov to block the logistics routes leading to the city and to provide their troops with the opportunity to regroup.
"The enemy seeks to occupy the dominant heights to take control of the ways and logistical routes leading to the city of Kurakhovo. The forces of defense restrain the enemy forces and cause it to great loss.
The situation in the Kurakhiv direction
Russian troops make considerable efforts to align the front line in this direction. Achieving this goal would allow the enemy to regroup the units, send some of them for recovery and prepare for new offensive actions.
Despite the difficult situation, Ukrainian defenders successfully reflect the attacks and cause significant losses to the enemy. Logistics ways to the city remain under the control of defense forces.
The strategic importance of Kurakhov
control over Kurakhov is key to ensuring logistics and defense operations in the region. The loss of the city could significantly complicate the situation on this segment of the front, but the Ukrainian military demonstrate stability and efficiency in confrontation with the enemy.
