The situation along the front line is increasingly deteriorating for Ukrainian forces. According to the analytical platform Deep State, Ukrainian units have found themselves effectively trapped in a «pocket» near Svetloye on the Pokrovsk axis, while Russian troops are intensifying operations across multiple sectors.

Deep State reports that Russian forces have advanced north of Rovnoye and consolidated their positions, a development that raises immediate risks for Ukrainian units holding ground around Svetloye.

At the same time, Russian troops are building up manpower and equipment south of Mirnograd, while also pressing forward northwest of Rovnoye, widening the pressure on Ukrainian defenses.

Ukrainian analysts acknowledge a sharp deterioration in the situation near Grishino, where control over the settlement has been largely lost. Russian units have already been spotted near Vasilevka and Novoalexandrovka, indicating further territorial gains.

Logistics remain a critical vulnerability for Ukrainian forces. Deep State points out that supply routes in the area are severely strained due to the persistent activity of Russian drones, which maintain control over territory extending up to 20 kilometers from the center of Mirnograd.
