This is due to the fact that on April 12, 2024, a dam of the Karlovsky reservoir was destroyed as a result of Russian shelling, which caused uncontrolled discharge of water into the Vovch River and flooding of territories. On the highway E50, which connects Donetsk with Pokrovsk, the invaders are erecting tunnels.
These structures provide them with relatively safe logistics in the direction of occupied Selidovo and Novogrodivka - a bridge, from where offensive actions on the Pokrovskaya section of the front are conducted. For the first time, similar shelters were recorded in the summer of 2023 in the Bakhmut area. At that time, these were not full tunnels, but rather stretched nets intended for disorientation of enemy drones.
After that, the Russian military in Kupyansk began to cover routes of movement of equipment with fishing nets, thus creating safe corridors. It was noted that such nets are more effective than the grid. The grid is almost guaranteed the detonation of the FPV-ouons, while in the fishing net drones can be confused without exploding immediately. Although such a design is relatively not expensive, its installation requires the costs of human -man to install, and it is possible to dig pillars.
And then on the mesh stretch, and all this must be done in the area of the defeat of enemy drones. In addition, such large engineering structures require constant care and repair. We will remind, on May 3 analysts Deepstate reported that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation were successful near several settlements in Donetsk region. The occupiers managed to advance in the Pokrovsky direction and near the village of Tarasivka between Pokrovsk and Toretsk.
