Oleskyi Castle

The ‘orcs’ assault.

On Pokrovsk.

A fortress city.

Anchoring a whole line.

 

Of urban settlements.

Stretching north.

Across eastern Ukraine.

“Continues to stall,” was reported.

 

 

‘Elves’ brigades.

Recently counterattacked.

A few miles.

South of Pokrovsk.

 

Recapturing terrain around.

The village of Lysivka.

And adding to.

the defensive buffer.

 

Around the city itself.

The successful operation.

Followed a similar.

‘Elves’ counterattack.

 

‘Elves’ counterattack.

Earlier this month.

On the western side.

Of Pokrovsk.

 

 

The ‘orcs’ assault.

On Pokrovsk.

A fortress city.

Anchoring a whole line.

 

Of urban settlements.

Stretching north.

Across eastern Ukraine.

“Continues to stall,” was reported.

 

 

*Because I read “Ukrainian ‘Road Cutter’ Drones Are Strangling Russian Supply Lines—And Saving Pokrovsk” by David Axe on 24 Feb 2025 on the Forbes, and also “Why are Ukrainians calling Russians ‘orcs’?” by James FitzGerald on 30 Apr 2022 on the BBC news.
So, I wrote this poem, including a report of the Conflict Intelligence Team.
Please read the original story on the Forbes:
