Situation at front

According to ISW, the Ukrainian Defense Forces are not allowing Russians to advance near Pokrovsk. Instead, Russia is putting pressure on the Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia regions.

A missile defense base will be launched in Poland soon. Warsaw is lobbying for it to be able to shoot down Russian missiles attacking the country, not just Iranian missiles flying at the United States.

Meanwhile, according to Ukraine's General Staff, Russian invaders are trying to break through the Ukrainian Armed Forces' defense in 4 directions in the Donetsk region.
