The Russian Federation is still concentrating on taking complete control over the areas of the Luhansk and Donetsk regions, maintaining the areas of Kherson and parts of the Kharkiv, Zaporizhia, and Mykolaiv oblasts in Ukraine that were captured, regaining the combat readiness of units that had suffered losses, and averting a potential defence force counteroffensive.

On the directions of Volyn, Polissia, and Siverskyi, there were no notable changes. The Russian army used barrel artillery to bombard Katerynivka and Obody in the Sumy oblast.

Russian invaders opened fire in the direction of Kharkiv at Svitlychne, Slatyne, Pytomnyk, Petrivka, Pischane, Husarivka, Mospanove, Krynychne, and Pryshyb using tanks, barrel artillery, and jet artillery.
Near Dibrivne, Mazanivka, and Dolyna, they continued to fire in the direction of Slovyansk.

Russian soldiers attempted to conduct an attack in the direction of Dovhenke-Dibrivne and Brazhkivka-Nova Dmytrivka, failed, and retreated.

Near Rozdolivka, Hryhorivka, Verkhnokamyanske, Dronivka, and Serebrianka in the Kramatorsk direction, Russian shelling was reported. Hostilities are still going on as the Russian army tries to launch an attack in the direction of Spirne-Vesele.

Russian occupants damaged the Soledar, Zaitseve, and Bilohorivka settlements in the direction of Bakhmut using barrel artillery and MLRS. Vershyna-Kodema and Hladosove-Kodema were the targets of their disastrous attack, which they spearheaded. Strapivka to Soledar, Pokrovske to Bakhmut, Travneve to Kodema, Semyhiria to Zaitseve, and Hladosove to Kurdiumivka are among the directions where fighting is still going on.

Russian troops launched barrel and rocket artillery fire in the direction of Avdiyivka close to Opytne, Mariyinka, Pisky, Avdiyivka, and Nevelske. Ineffective attempts were made to carry out assault operations in the directions of Spartak-Opytne, Novoselivka-Druha-Krasnohorivka, Donetsk-Pervomayske, Pisky-Nevelske, and Lozove-Nevelske.

Russian artillery fire was recorded close to Vuhledar, Velyka Novosilka, and Pavlivka on the Novopavlivsky direction.

The Russian occupants set fire to the neighbourhoods of Dorozhnyanka, Novosilka, and Mala Tokmachka in the Zaporizhzhia direction, Ukraine. In the vicinity of Mala Tokmachka and Olhivske, airstrikes were conducted. Russian invaders launched an attack at Makarivka-Vremivka, but it was unsuccessful, so they withdrew.

Russian units kept bombarding the settlements of Velyke Artakove, Lozove, Tavriyske, Stepova Dolyna, Pervomayske, Kyselivka, Chervona Dolyna, Potiomkine, Prybuzke, Parutyne, Poliana, Novooleksandrivka, and Partyzanske in the direction of the Southern Buh.

Russian airstrikes were conducted close to Zarichne, Bila Krynytsya, and Andriyivka.

The Russian occupants attempted partial assaults in the vicinity of the Blahodatne village in the Mykolaiv direction.

The Russian Federation’s naval group in the Black and Azov Seas concentrates on obstructing civilian commerce in the Black Sea’s northwest and destroying military infrastructure and other objects deep within Ukrainian territory.

Ukrainian missile, artillery, and aircraft forces continue to complete their firing missions effectively in the assigned directions. For forces that are consistently incurring casualties, the adversary is severely lacking in trained and motivated reinforcements.
