In the Pokrovskoye direction, Ukrainian forces have launched a large-scale strike campaign aimed at Russian bases, training camps, and troop concentrations across the Donbas front to bleed Russia’s ability to resume its offensive.Combined with ground operations, these joint efforts have already inflicted 60,000 casualties on the initial Russian force of 110,000 since the start of the Pokrovsky Offensive, Euromaidan Press reports. The second Ukrainian strike came after one of the most significant strikes on the plantTopaz in Donetsk, where the Russian command post was located.

Witnesses again report thick smoke, multiple explosions, and significant damage to repair and logistics facilities.
Meanwhile, other strikes in Donetsk have repeatedly hit troop concentrations, energy and command infrastructure, preventing the Russians from smoothly regrouping or reestablishing bridgeheads, as well as the Russian army. The strike is confirmed by numerous published videos from the region. Closer to the front linenear Myrnograd, Russian troop concentrations have also been targeted by Ukrainians. Such strikes have undermined Russia's ability to mass troops or prepare joint offensives that threaten Pokrovska. According to Euromaidan Press, significant strikes on Russian air defense systems, which are being carried out in parallel withby destroying every radar or air defense system, means fewer obstacles for Ukrainian drones, missile launchers, and fighter jets to reach important targets.For example, the Zupark radar near Donetsk was destroyed after a Shark reconnaissance drone strike, followed by a HIMARS artillery strike. Two Pantsir-S1 systems were destroyed within 24 hours, one by a Ram-2X drone strike, the other in Snizhne by another still unidentified Ukrainianby a drone, which led to the elimination of a critical mobile air defense cover.

Near Donetsk, an expensive Russian Buk-M2 system worth over $10 million was geolocated and destroyed by a HIMARS system, as seen in a video published by a Ukrainian blog. TheseUkrainian strikes have contributed to exceptional Russian losses in the Pokrovsk direction over the past ten months, while the Russian command has repeatedly attempted to outflank Pokrovsk, conduct infiltration, and launch direct attacks with the aim of capturing Pokrovsk and cutting its supply routes.Ukrainian analysts have estimated that during the Pokrovsky Offensive alone, Russia has already lost about 60,000 soldiers, killed and wounded. Daily losses of Russian manpower and equipment have increased sharply, especially after the Russian breakthrough at Dobropillya failed and Ukrainian troops beganisolate, cut off and eliminate trapped enemy units, Euromaidan Press reports.

In addition, Ukrainian airstrikes on troop concentrations and training camps in the rear destroyed Russianunits before they reached the front line, reducing pressure on the defenders and allowing Ukraine to repel attacks more effectively, while the joint, prolonged strike campaign added thousands of Russian casualties to the statistics. Recent Ukrainian strikes on bases, training camps and air defense systemsdefenses are more than just tactical successes.
