Russian troops are suffering massive losses at the front , and although they are constantly receiving reinforcements, they are increasingly of poor quality. This was stated on Ukrainian Radio by Artem Pribylnov, a communications officer with the 155th Separate Mechanized Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
He noted that Pokrovsk has become a "complete meat grinder" for Russians.
"New units are arriving. But a Pokrovsk assault trooper on the Russian side lives on the line of contact for about a week at most. That's how long it takes him to walk from Selidovo, make camp somewhere on the southern outskirts of Shevchenkov, somehow regroup, and move on. This journey takes about a week, and within that week, the assault trooper will be destroyed," the soldier explained. He added that the quality of the enemy's personnel is not very high, and with each reinforcement it continues to decline.
"Currently, Russian occupiers are using homeless people, alcoholics, drug addicts, tuberculosis sufferers, and the like in assault groups. These people aren't very motivated, and they also have certain physical deficiencies. So, carrying a load of approximately 60 kg, they mostly drop it along the route. This happens very often because these people are unable to perform any physical exercise," he said. In such circumstances, the number of Russian soldiers captured is also high.
He also noted that attack drones currently account for 70-80% of kills. Therefore, small infantry groups are primarily used at the front. "There's no point in creating large concentrations of personnel, defensive units, or large observation posts. Because the KAB simply flies in—and then what? It's important to disperse the personnel. In our zone of responsibility, we're defending Pokrovsk, which means buildings and heights. Our personnel are holding the line and staying where they need to be," the military officer emphasized. Major Volodymyr Nazarenko, deputy commander of Ukraine's 4th Battalion Freedom Force of the 4th Brigade Rubizh said that in northern Pokrovsk sector, Russian forces use conveyor-style assaults — small infantry groups try to break through Ukrainian defenses. “Our brigade is carrying out missions in the Pokrovsk sector, in its northern part. It’s one of the hottest areas of the entire eastern front. The situation remains unchanged, as the enemy continues to use both equipment and small infantry groups, conducting conveyor-style assaults. They keep trying to advance and attack again and again,”
