Ukraine's special forces released footage on Wednesday (November 26) purporting to show its fighters in Pokrovsk.

Reuters confirmed the location as northern Pokrovsk by the buildings, signs, road layout and infrastructure which matched satellite and file imagery.

The date when the video was filmed could not be independently verified.

The RIA state news agency cited the Russian defence ministry as saying that its forces had captured two districts in the city on Monday (November 24).

Reuters could not independently verify the battlefield reports.

Ukrainian commanders say they do not have enough soldiers to prevent small, persistent incursions of Pokrovsk.
