#1  The enemy continues to develop its tactical success in the Pokrovsk region

🇷🇺 In particular, the enemy infantry was spotted in Novogrodivka and is trying to gain a foothold in high-rise buildings, storming houses, heavy fighting is ongoing there. Attempts are being made to push the enemy further north in the direction of Krasny Yar.

❓ And during this extremely difficult situation, very strange processes take place, in particular, in the 151 brigade, whose command neglects personnel, sending drone pilots, who are unique specialists, "in the trenches" to hold positions. The effectiveness of such orders is zero, because the fighters either become 200, or are forced to leave their positions under the enormous onslaught of the enemy, who as a result has another advance. The corresponding transfers take place despite the direct order of the Commander-in-Chief prohibiting the use of pilots in other activities. The unit commander's attempt to prevent this resulted in his removal and transfer to another position.

❗️ We hope that the higher command will pay attention to this situation and let the commander of the 151 brigade understand the price of pilots and the zero effectiveness of such orders, which as a result turn into another success for the Katsaps.
