This is the evening address of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The enemy continues the offensive operation against Ukraine, focusing on the encirclement of Kyiv, Kharkiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, and Mykolayiv, reaching the administrative borders in Luhansk and Donetsk regions, creating a land corridor with the TOT of Crimea in the direction of Mariupol - Novoazovsk. But the invaders did not achieve the ultimate goal of eleven days of occupation.

The enemy group began to accumulate resources for the storming of Kyiv.  

At the same time, the invaders did not stop trying to prepare for the offensive in the Polissya, Seversky, Donetsk, and Tavriya directions.

In the Polissya direction, the enemy is trying to establish full control over the cities of Bucha and Irpin and get closer to the capital of Ukraine. In the area of ​​the city of Irpin, the enemy is advancing tank and motorized infantry units. From the territory of the Republic of Belarus through the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone the supply of fuel and other material means for the occupying forces continues.

In the northern direction, the occupiers are trying to provide a tactical advantage to reach the eastern outskirts of Kyiv through Brovarsky and Boryspil districts, as well as to establish control over the cities of Chernihiv and Sumy.

After inflicting fire damage by units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the enemy's weapons depots in the areas of Nova Basan and Skrypali, the enemy suffered significant losses and redeployed additional forces to replenish manpower and equipment.

In the Tavriya direction, the occupiers are conducting an offensive with forces of up to three BTGs in the direction of the city of Zaporizhzhya. The enemy managed to restore the movement of trains on the Antonov railway bridge across the Dnieper.

In addition, the advance of enemy units in the northeastern direction along the Ingul River continues. BTGr forced the river and occupied n.p. Kashpero-Mykolaivka.

The Defense Forces continue to conduct a defense operation in the South, East, and North. In the course of hostilities, the city of Chuhuiv was liberated. The invaders suffered heavy losses in personnel and equipment. Lieutenant Colonel Dmytro Safronov, Commander of the 61st Separate Marine Brigade of the Russian Armed Forces, and Lieutenant Colonel Denys Glebov, Deputy Commander of the 11th Separate Airborne Assault Brigade of the Russian Armed Forces, were killed.
