Quote: "The Russian occupying forces are throwing a huge number of personnel and equipment into the battle and using all the available assault potential they have in the area at the moment.

Tactically, the enemy is acting as follows: they are trying to capture Novyi Chasiv Yar (towards the canal) in an operational encirclement, so they are moving from the top to the village of Bohdanivka, and from the bottom to the village of Ivanivtsi. Over the past week, the enemy has not had any tactical successes, despite the fact that about thirty combat clashes take place in this area every day."

Details: Fedorenko also said that the Ukrainian defence forces are countering the Russians and fierce fighting is going on for the positions.

Quote: "As for Chasiv Yar itself: it is extremely important for the enemy to jump into the city itself and engage in street fighting, because if you are numerically superior, it is an advantage to fight in urban areas. So far the enemy has not managed to enter Chasiv Yar. Fighting continues in the forest plantations that surround it and the enemy has not advanced over the past week."
