Russian forces have advanced closer to Pokrovsk, Ukraine, threatening a key logistics hub. Ukrainian critics express concern that the country's focus on the Kursk incursion has left the eastern front vulnerable. Russian troops, deploying new tactics, captured Novohrodivka, bolstering their offensive toward Pokrovsk. Ukraine has evacuated civilians from the area as battles intensify. Meanwhile, Ukraine's cross-border operation into Kursk has slowed, with officials reporting 1,294 sq km of territory taken. However, concerns are mounting over whether this offensive justifies potential losses in the eastern region.
