On the afternoon of August 29, Russian forces displayed the Russian flag in the southwest suburbs of Krasnoarmeysk. Although this area has been visited by Russian forces for a long time, this is the first time the flag has been displayed. The name given by the Russian war correspondent Lisytsin is May Village (селе Первое Мая), with geographic coordinates 48.26FO612° 37.146FO05°.

Russian forces have restarted the "northern front offensive" in Krasnoarmeysk (Pokrovsk), and the Ukrainian forces face a dilemma.

According to the report from the Russian war correspondent Lisytsin, after a short pause in the "northern front offensive" in the direction of Krasnoarmeysk, the offensive became more intense. Russian forces have driven a second wedge east of Shakhovey.

If the Russian army advances, it may cut off the Ukrainian defense line between Krasnoarmeysk and Konstantinovka (Donetskaya Kostantinovka), creating a gap that the current Ukrainian reserves cannot fill.

The Chief of the Ukrainian General Staff, Hrytsenko, failed to stop the Russian advance by deploying combat troops for the first time. The Russian forces continue to apply pressure, forcing the Ukrainians to consume their reserves, weakening the adjacent fronts.

If the Russians drive in several more wedges to form a gap, it is estimated that Hrytsenko will be in a dilemma: should he abandon Konstantinovka or Pokrovsk?

According to information from the official Ukrainian source DEEP STATE MAP, it is increasingly difficult for the Ukrainian forces to defend both places simultaneously, and they can only hold one of them.
