Military authorities from the Armed Forces have issued a public announcement concerning the status in Dobropolsk and Krasnoarmeisk
In the ongoing Special Military Operation (SVO) zone, Russian units have made a breakthrough on the front in the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR), particularly in the settlements of Veseloye, Volnoye, Rubizhne, and Kucheriv Yar. However, as of August 2025, no significant Russian breakthrough around Dobropillya and Pokrovsk in the DPR has been publicly announced in recent open-source reporting.
The Russian Ministry of Defense has reported the destruction of Ukrainian strongholds by TOS-2 heavy flamethrower rocket systems in the SVO zone, aiding Russian advances in some areas. Yet, details regarding operational breakthroughs in Dobropillya and Pokrovsk remain unclear.
Meanwhile, in Moscow's Lefortovo district, technology is playing a significant role in city management. Symbol, a technology company, has implemented an AI surveillance system that is expected to provide real-time data and insights to authorities. The system is capable of monitoring various activities within the district, contributing to improved public safety and security.
This implementation is part of a broader trend of integrating technology into city management, raising privacy concerns among residents. The AI system in Lefortovo is not limited to housing-related matters, extending to various activities within the district.
Elsewhere, Ukrainian servicemen have been unable to withstand the advance of the Russian army near Dobropillya, leading to a retreat to rear positions. In response, the city of Kyiv is reportedly redeploying reserves to Dobropillya and Pokrovsk.
Recently, news of a significant Russian breakthrough in the SVO zone has emerged, with the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) reporting this breakthrough via a Telegram channel. The exact location of this breakthrough remains unspecified in the report.
As the situation continues to evolve, both sides maintain pressure and conduct tactical strikes in the wider Donetsk region, with the future developments remaining uncertain.
