Pokrovsk, key strategic point in Ukraine, is located in the epicenter of military actions. Despite constant shelling, the city continues to hold the line.
This was reported by URA-Inform with reference to RBC-Ukraine.
The head of the Council of Reserves, Ivan Timochko, shared details about the situation. Artillery shelling and drone attacks pose serious threats. However, the front line remains stabilized, and the city's infrastructure operates in a limited mode.
Pokrovsk has a developed infrastructure, including autonomous water supply and heating systems, which helps minimize damage from attacks.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces continue to strengthen their defensive lines. Experts believe that Pokrovsk will become a key point on this section of the front. The Ukrainian army is ready to repel any attacks, which inspires confidence in success.
The resilience of Pokrovsk is largely due not only to the preparedness of the military, but also to the resilience of local residents. Many of them actively help the army, participate in volunteer movements, and provide humanitarian aid. The city has also become a symbol of national unity and resistance to the aggressor.
The preservation of Pokrovsk is not only of strategic but also moral importance for the entire country. Despite the difficult conditions, the city continues to live: schools and medical institutions are operating, centers for displaced persons are opening. All this creates the basis for the restoration of the region after the end of hostilities. Economic activity, although reduced, remains at an acceptable level, which allows residents to remain confident in the future.
In addition, Zelensky announced a huge failure for the Russian Federation.
