Russian sabotage groups infiltrated Vesele, Rubizhne, Kucheriv Yar, and Vilne

Russian forces are breaching Ukrainian defensive lines in Donetsk Oblast, advancing toward Dobropillia

Censor.NET → Source tone: certain

While we 'continue to advance', storming the 'crucial' ruins of houses, concentrating capable forces in the Sumy direction, we have a difficult situation in the Pokrovsk direction. It is very similar to the events during the 'surrender' of Ocheretyne, which created chaos, a critical situation in the area and subsequently ensured the enemy's success in the occupation.
