Footage shows an untypically large column of Russian armored vehicles assaulting toward Ukrainian lines and being met with heavy resistance in the form of drones, ATGMs, and rocket artillery. As usual, Russian forces suffered heavy losses in the operation. Yet, if you look at the map where the incident took place, Pokrovsk, you will see that Russia has steadily gained ground westward and are nearing the end of Donetsk. If Russia is able to sustain these costly assaults at the current rate, they will be reaching the neighboring oblast of Dnipropetrovsk in a few short weeks.
