Occupants have slowed down on most sections of the front: Syrsky named the reason.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine have made troop movements, which slowed the progress of the Russian troops. This was reported on the 'Glavcom' website, citing the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Oleksandr Syrsky.

Syrsky personally visited the brigades defending the Novopavlivka direction in the Donetsk region. He noted that the Russian army is actively advancing in this direction and is trying to capture three populated points.

The Commander-in-Chief held a meeting with brigade commanders and the commander of the operational-tactical group 'Donetsk' Oleksandr Tarnavskyi, during which the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the course of hostilities, and problematic issues were discussed. He emphasized that he has already issued the necessary orders to address these issues.

It is worth noting that Ukrainian troops regained control over the settlement of Kotlyne, which is located near Pokrovsk.

As reported, one day of war in Ukraine costs the Russian Federation nearly one billion dollars. According to official data, 41% of the aggressor's budget is spent on defense.

By the way, the enemy occupied the village of Zaporizhzhia in the Donetsk region, but over the past one and a half weeks, the activity of the opponent in the Pokrovsk area has decreased.
