Russia-Ukraine war update: Situation in eastern Ukraine getting dangerous as the military tells people to leave the town of Pokrovsk as quickly as possible. The Russian army getting closer toward Pokrovsk makes it one of the main targets.
The Ukrainian military is doing something very risky yet courageous: hitting Russia, namely the Kursk region. The stakes of a war potentially getting more dangerous for Ukraine could be increased by it. The assault began on August 6 and might turn the way of conducting the war. At the same time, it makes Ukraine’s defenses weak, especially in the east where Russia is strong.
For months now, Russian forces have been doing well in the Donetsk region, one of the most critical locations in the Russia-Ukraine war. Evacuation at Pokrovsk is becoming urgent every passing day as officials are warning that Russian troops are heading close very fast, leaving literally not even minutes for people to gather their things and run.
Pokrovsk has been one of the major targets since the war began. Now, with Russia drawing closer and closer, civilian safety is paramount. The authorities are worried about getting people out safely as the situation worsens.
Such an attack against the Kursk region may make Russia send some of its soldiers back to defend their own land. This would definitely help Ukraine in some sense but is a dangerous risk. This move by Ukraine, to attack within Russia, shows just how bold they are but also how much danger they are in.
The Russian army has been attacking since spring, having the upper hand, especially in the Donetsk region. Ukraine’s actions can be consequential in a really big way. At this point, looking at the situation after the attack in Kursk, the Kremlin is going to hit really hard.
As Russian forces close in on Pokrovsk, it exposes civilians to danger. A protracted war has put a heavy strain on Ukraine’s military. What is happening now in Pokrovsk further underlines the tension and stakes of the Russia-Ukraine War.
Russia-Ukraine War: From Where It Started?
According to Wikipedia,
On 24 February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine in a major escalation of the Russo-Ukrainian War, which started in 2014. The invasion, the largest conflict in Europe since World War II has caused hundreds of thousands of military casualties and tens of thousands of Ukrainian civilian casualties.
As of 2024, Russian troops are occupying about 20% of Ukraine. From a population of 41 million, about 8 million Ukrainians had been internally displaced and more than 8.2 million had fled the country by April 2023, creating Europe’s largest refugee crisis since World War II.
