This battle is part of the Pokrovsk offensive.

Kurakhove is one of Ukraine's logistical hubs for the front lines in Donetsk. This is because Kurakhove is connected to Pokrovsk by a road that is part of the infrastructure used for moving troops and supplies to the front lines.

If Russian forces succeed in capturing Kurakhove, they can then advance northward to attack Pokrovsk from a new direction, thereby achieving faster tactical gains up to and along the H-15 highway. Bukansatya (talk) 16:58, 1 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

I disagree that your quote supports your assertion; it merely says that a capture of Kurakhove, if further advances are made northward, might assist in the Pokrovsk offensive.
