Ivan Tymochko, head of the Council of Reservists of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, stated this on Espreso TV."Regarding the Pokrovsk-Myrnohrad agglomeration, two key points should be highlighted. The first is the front line itself. This is a line with fortifications where some of our troops are located. There is no clear line there, as one might imagine," Tymochko noted.According to the head of the Council of Reservists, about 150,000 Russian soldiers are stationed along the 50-kilometer defense line of the Pokrovsk-Myrnohrad agglomeration. They are constantly trying to break through the defenses, find weak spots, attack, and enter urban areas, as the onset of winter increases their chances of survival."In urban areas, the Russian servicemen can hide and warm themselves as much as possible. In addition, they can hide equipment or accumulate resources in the ruins. On the other hand, the number of enemy forces penetrating the rear of the Ukrainian Armed Forces is significantly smaller.In total, several hundred Russian soldiers are in the Pokrovsk-Myrnohrad agglomeration, who are usually scattered. Their task is to accumulate at certain points and try to gain a foothold and expand control. Of course, this is a serious challenge, but the main mass of Russian troops is still concentrated in the so-called red and gray zones, which we see on the maps," Tymochko added.Over the past day, December 11, 174 combat engagements took place on the Russian-Ukrainian front.
