Russia’s Advance Poses Growing Threat to Ukraine’s East

Russia’s military is making swift advances in eastern Ukraine, targeting the key city of Pokrovsk. This move, one of the most significant advances since the start of the war, could give Russia a strategic foothold in the Donbas region if the city falls.


Despite Ukraine's recent counteroffensive into Russia’s Kursk region, Moscow has not diverted troops from the Donbas, allowing its forces to push forward in the east. The capture of Pokrovsk would bolster Russia’s control over the region, posing a significant challenge to Ukraine’s defense strategy.
