A man walks past a burning house in the city of Pokrovsk, in the Donetsk region, on September 21, 2024, destroyed following a recent strike amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Russian forces are now only 10 kilometres (six miles) away from the city of Pokrovsk, a now-deserted city, once home to 60,000, that Moscow has been trying to capture for months.
