Civilians in Pokrovsk, Ukraine, are facing a forced evacuation as Russian troops advance rapidly toward the city, which is a critical logistics hub in the Donetsk region. Local authorities have ordered families to leave due to an imminent threat, with around 53,000 residents remaining, including approximately 4,000 children. Reports indicate that residents have just one to two weeks to evacuate as the situation deteriorates, with daily clashes intensifying at the front lines.
