According to Syrskyi, Russian troops, after sustaining heavy losses and encountering resistance from Ukrainian forces, had to bring in their operational reserve in the Pokrovsk–Myrnohrad agglomeration.

«The aggressor keeps shifting its attack routes and is employing deceptive infiltration tactics, even disguising its troops as civilians or using civilians as cover, ” Syrskyi said.

He noted that the meeting focused on reinforcing Ukrainian units and coordinating the use of reserves.

«Priority is ensuring the advance of Ukrainian assault troops, ” he added.
