In the Donetsk region, the Russian army holds the initiative and forced the Ukrainian units to gradually retreat.
This was announced by the head of the Intelligence Center of the Estonian Defense Forces, Colonel Ants Kiviselg, ERR reports .
The average number of attacks per day remained at the same level as in previous weeks, that is, about 167 per day. The Russians seized new territories in Donetsk region.
"The armed forces of the Russian Federation are able to capture a large number of territories in the Donetsk region, primarily in the Pokrovsky, Kurakhivskyi, Vugledarskyi and Velikonovosilkivskyi districts. Over the past week, the Russian Federation has occupied an additional 150 square kilometers of territory in the region," Kiviselg said.
In addition, there are signs that the armed forces of the Russian Federation are preparing assaults in the Zaporizhzhia region. It is quite likely that the already known 76th airborne division with a permanent location in Pskov will take part in future attacks, then the goal will be the conquest of new territories, as well as the further linking of the Ukrainian armed forces in this region, the Estonian colonel added.
"It is possible that the armed forces of the Russian Federation will achieve a local breakthrough in the Pokrovsky, Kurakhiv or Vugledar districts this year," Kiviselg noted.
