Militarnyi reports:

The Ukrainian command reinforced the defense of the Pokrovsk sector with an experienced 93rd Kholodnyi Yar Separate Mechanized Brigade. There are now  stabilizing elements on that front due to the deployment of additional Ukrainian forces. Also, so far, the Russians lack the forces to advance simultaneously in multiple sectors.

The 93rd Mechanized Brigade released a video of their soldiers’ work in this sector.

The brigade’s tanks are actively trying to destroy the Russian invaders in the area of Novohrodivka.

 

“The Pokrovsk sector surprised us,” the tank crews of the 93rd Mechanized Brigade noted.

 

Prior to that, the 93rd Kholodnyi Yar Separate Mechanized Brigade was defending its positions in the Klishchiyivka area of Bakhmut district.

According to the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, as of early September 5, Russian troops had conducted 52 assaults in the Pokrovsk sector.

The attacks took place in the areas of Vozdvyzhenka, Zelene Pole, Novohrodivka, Hrodivka, Selidove, Mykolaivka, and Myroliubivka.

 

“The Russian invaders, with the support of aviation, tried to force our units out of their positions,” the General Staff noted.

Russian infantry groups are using landings and abandoned buildings to move closer to Ukrainian positions and then attack them.

However, despite the difficult circumstances, there are stabilization elements due to the deployment of additional Ukrainian forces. Also, so far, the Russians lack the forces to advance simultaneously in all sectors. However, Russian troops are trying to expand the territory under their control and strengthen their flanks to continue attacking Ukrainian borders and positions. The 93rd Kholodnyi Yar Separate Mechanized Brigade and other units of the Ukrainian Defense Forces will try to prevent this.
