In the Lyman direction, Russian troops have entered the village of Torske in the Donetsk region and have secured themselves in separate positions, according to Ukrainian military officer Stanislav Bunyatov.
According to him, the enemy is trying to implement a plan for the partial encirclement of Ukrainian units in this area.
«The enemy infiltrated Torske and took up defence in the encirclement — such actions contribute to the destabilization of our defence and the advancement of the Russians in this direction», — Bunyatov wrote.
He also notes that Russian forces are advancing like an «appendix» — a narrow wedge — to the southeast of the village, aiming to flank the Ukrainian positions and form a «pocket».
According to the latest data from Deep State’s map, Torske is currently in the gray zone — neither side has complete control over the settlement. Fighting continues.
