Heavy fighting between Ukrainian and Russian forces for the strategic logistics hub of Pokrovsk in Donetsk has unleashed a new wave of mass evacuations. While Russia claimed on December 1 to have taken control of the city, Ukraine insists that intense street-to-street combat is still underway.

The battle has sparked deep fear among residents across nearby towns, pushing families to flee before their communities become active war zones. Pavlohrad, around 100 km from Pokrovsk, has become a key transit center—offering warmth, registration support, and temporary shelter to exhausted evacuees arriving by bus and even ambulance.

Civilians describe relentless drone activity, daily shelling, and the constant fear of not surviving the next explosion. Meanwhile, evacuations from the Pokrovsk area itself have stalled because teams cannot safely enter the community. Relief groups warn that the situation is deteriorating rapidly as the frontline shifts.
