He reported this to TSN on the evening of November 9.Syrskyi assured that Pokrovsk is a solid fortified area. According to him, although the Russian army sometimes breaks through engineering barriers, the command knows these places precisely, so the situation is under control."Of course, there are both plan 'B' and plan 'C' — for all possible scenarios," the Commander-in-Chief assured.He added that the intensity of Russian attacks has indeed decreased, but this does not mean that the Russian troops have abandoned their attempts to capture the city. Currently, about 50,000 soldiers are concentrated in the area.For comparison, since October, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have eliminated about 30,000 Russian troops. In addition, the 425th Assault Regiment is involved in Pokrovsk, effectively defending Ukrainian positions.Syrskyi also noted that he himself spends almost all his time near Pokrovsk, and the situation there is assessed three times a day. Logistics routes have been restored and reoriented, partly due to weather conditions. According to him, there are currently all the necessary forces and means to firmly assure that there is no reason for panic.On November 1, Oleksandr Syrskyi stated that a comprehensive operation to destroy and displace Russian troops from Pokrovsk is underway, and there is no encirclement of the city.
