The armed forces of Russia have made advances on the front in Ukraine, approaching an important logistical point in Pokrovsk and taking control of the town of New York in the northern part of the Donetsk region, according to the British Ministry of Defence.

As part of recent actions on the western front, the Russian army managed to seize additional towns, which allowed it to approach the key logistical hub in Pokrovsk.

Additionally, on the northern front, Russian forces entered New York, a town considered to be on the front line since 2014, when Kremlin-backed separatist groups initiated hostilities.

According to the daily intelligence update provided by British military intelligence, further tactical successes by Russian armed forces are possible in the coming weeks.

Nevertheless, the report highlights the weakening of the attacker's combat capabilities, caused by, among other things, shortages among the officer corps, insufficient training levels, and significant losses suffered.
