Ukrainian armed forces have initiated the withdrawal of their units from Dzerzhinsk (also known by its Ukrainian name, Toretsk), according to information provided by security forces to TASS.

“The situation for the enemy in Dzerzhinsk is quite deplorable. They are forced to flee again. Now there is a partial withdrawal of units from the city,” a source disclosed.

The Ukrainian military is reportedly following a familiar tactic of withdrawing in small, strategic groups, an approach they’ve previously used in such situations.

Dzerzhinsk, located in the Donetsk region, has been a focal point of intense conflict, with Russian and allied forces ramping up pressure in the area. As the Ukrainian military retreats, the broader implications for their hold on other key locations in the region remain uncertain according to TASS.
