Details: There were no significant changes on the Volyn and Polissia fronts.

On the Sivershchyna and Slobozhanshchyna fronts, the Russians are maintaining a military presence in the border areas, conducting active sabotage activities to prevent the deployment of Ukrainian troops to vulnerable areas and increasing the density of minefields along the state border in Russia’s Belgorod Oblast.

On the Kupiansk front, Russian forces attacked the positions of Ukrainian defenders near the village of Ivanivka (Kharkiv Oblast) once.

On the Lyman front, Ukrainian defenders repelled 13 Russian attacks near the settlements of Bilohorivka (Luhansk Oblast) and Terny, Yampolivka and to the north from Vesele (Donetsk Oblast), where Russian forces, supported by aircraft, attempted to break through Ukrainian defences.

On the Bakhmut front, Ukrainian soldiers repelled seven Russian attacks near the settlements of Ivanivske, Bohdanivka and Klishchiivka (Donetsk Oblast).

On the Avdiivka front, Ukrainian defenders repelled nine Russian attacks near the settlements of Berdychi, Semenivka, Nevelske and Pervomaiske (Donetsk Oblast).

On the Novopavlivka front, Ukraine’s Defence Forces are continuing to hold back the Russians near the settlements of Novomykhailivka, Heorhiivka and Urozhaine (Donetsk Oblast), where the Russians, supported by aircraft, attempted to break through the Ukrainian defences 26 times.

On the Orikhiv front, Russian forces, supported by aircraft, attacked the positions of Ukrainian defenders near the settlement of Staromaiorske (Donetsk Oblast) as well as near Robotyne and to the north-west of Verbove (Zaporizhzhia Oblast) seven times.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian soldiers are continuing to actively inflict losses in manpower and equipment on the Russian forces, draining them along the entire contact line.
