Russian forces have made significant advances in the ongoing conflict in eastern Ukraine, capturing the key villages of Vesely Gai and Pushkine in the Donetsk region.
These victories mark the most substantial territorial gains for Russia in months, intensifying pressure on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
The offensive has brought Russian troops closer to strategic targets, including Pokrovsk and Kurakhove, while clashes continue in heavily contested areas like Chasiv Yar.
The Ukrainian military described the situation as "exhausting," with fierce resistance reported on multiple fronts.
Meanwhile, Russian artillery and airstrikes persist, targeting critical infrastructure and Ukrainian defensive positions.
Analysts note that Russia’s November advances are the largest since March 2022, signaling a renewed push to consolidate control over Donetsk.
As the battle escalates, international observers warn of the conflict's growing humanitarian and geopolitical consequences.

Ukraine launched a massive drone and missile attack on Russian territories, damaging factories and closing schools. In retaliation, Russia fired its hypersonic "Oreshnik" missile, escalating tensions. Putin warned of a potential global conflict, accusing the US and Britain of enabling Ukraine’s strikes. Meanwhile, President-elect Donald Trump called for a ceasefire, questioning Washington's future support for Ukraine.

In a rare and intense tank-on-tank battle near Pokrovsk, Donetsk People's Republic, Russian forces clashed with Ukrainian armored units, resulting in one Ukrainian tank being destroyed. The confrontation occurred as part of a Russian convoy advancing towards a wooded area on the outskirts of the village. The battle escalated quickly as both sides fired at each other, missing initially, but a Russian tank landed several direct hits on the leading Ukrainian tank, causing it to catch fire and become inoperative. The second Ukrainian tank retreated but was later hunted down and destroyed by FPV kamikaze drones. This dramatic video showcases the rare occurrence of direct tank combat amidst the heavy use of drones, marking a rare but significant escalation in tank warfare in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict.
