Russians are besieging Kurakhove: DeepState reported on the situation near the city.

The city of Kurakhove in Donetsk region continues to be under pressure from the enemy from various sides. In the village of Sontsiivka, the occupiers are trying to entrench themselves and completely capture it. This was reported by the analytical project DeepState.

«The Russians continue their assault on Novoselidivka, but the largest concentration of hostile forces is observed in the northern part of Kurakhove, in the vicinity of Berestka-Illinka. Illinka is already under enemy control, and individual infantrymen are noticed in the outskirts of Berestki. The goal of the occupiers is to reach Staryi Terniv,» - noted in the information from DeepState.

Analysts also confirm that the eastern outskirts of Kurakhove are constantly under threat of attack from Russian troops. They are conducting mechanized assaults, trying to break into the outskirts of the city and settle in the private sector. One of the latest occupations was of school No. 3, but the enemy was repelled. 

«The situation is particularly complicated in the area between the settlements of Dalne and Uspenivka. The 'pocket' that formed along the line Antonivka-Katerynivka-Yelizavetivka-Illinka-Romanivka-Hannivka is under threat of evening positioning of enemy forces. The Russian troops are actively invading through Dalne towards Uspenivka. Uspenivka plays an important role in logistics and control of the situation for the Joint Forces in the «pocket»,» - explain the analysts.

According to DeepState, the situation south of Kurakhove remains unchanged. The enemy has decided to advance towards Yasna Polyana-Maksymivka in the direction of the N15 Zaporizhzhia-Donetsk highway. This may lead to the obstruction of logistics for the Joint Forces units, which may find themselves under fire control if the enemy captures this direction.

It is worth noting that in recent weeks it has been reported that the occupiers are actively pressing on the city of Kurakhove with the aim of capturing it before winter.

It is noteworthy that the Russians have completely captured the village of Illinka, which is located near Kurakhove. This was also reported by the analytical project DeepState in its Telegram channel.

DeepState also reported that Russian troops have already occupied Rivnopil and have moved in several directions.
