Ukrainian troops are losing ground around the crucial supply hub of Pokrovsk .

Moscow is set on capturing as much territory as possible as the Trump administration is pushing for negotiations to end the war.

With Russians in control of dominant heights, Ukrainian supply routes are now within their range.

Heavy fog in recent days prevented Ukrainian soldiers from effectively using surveillance drones.

Ukrainian soldiers in Pokrovsk say shortages of fighting troops are “catastrophic” and challenges are compounded by newly created infantry units that are poorly trained and inexperienced.

“Everything is visible (by enemy drones) and it is very difficult,” a paramedic says.

For every one of his soldiers, Russians have 20 soldiers, he says, emphasizing how outnumbered they are.
