The nation's leader traveled to meet with Ukrainian forces in the eastern front on the start of the week.

Intense Conditions in Pokrovsk
Updated analysis from a national effort indicated that invading troops had advanced deeper into Pokrovsk and nearby locations, though much of it remained beyond firm control by both forces. The status is precarious, with updates indicating that opposition troops were digging in and enhancing fortifications in some districts.
Invading troops continue to advance in the Pokrovsk sector and are reportedly acting with growing ease within the city proper.
Military experts noted that defense units had recaptured substantial territory of a enemy advance in the Dobropillya front, on the eastern edge of the Pokrovsk campaign.
