According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Russian invasion forces continue the offensive operation against Ukraine, reports Espreso.TV.

Strategic tasks related to the defeat of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, access to the administrative borders of Donetsk and Luhansk regions and the establishment of control over the left bank of Ukraine remain unfulfilled. The aggressor partially managed to temporarily occupy settlements and establish control over the routes in the Donetsk and South Bug operational districts.

The aggressor is trying to take measures to increase the number of troops in the direction of Kyiv by moving uncoordinated and incompetent units from the Central and Eastern military districts.

Due to the consumption of almost all missile ammunition and some types of ammunition, the military-political leadership decided to transfer the enterprises of the Russian military-industrial complex involved in the production of "Caliber" and ammunition to MLRS "Tornado" to round-the-clock.

No significant changes in the activities of the invasion forces have been recorded in the Volhynia, Polissya and Siversk areas.  The aggressor focused on the fortification equipment of the occupied frontiers.

In the Slobozhansk and Sumy areas, units of the Russian invasion forces are not conducting active offensive operations, the enemy is regrouping and trying to establish logistical support. The invaders are more active in reconnaissance.

Russian terrorist forces do not stop trying to capture the city of Izyum, strengthen the group by introducing additional units, take measures to organize engineering and logistics.

In the Luhansk region, the aggressor intensified hostilities in the area of ​​the village of Rubizhne, and had partial success. It continues to shell unprotected civilian infrastructure in order to intimidate the local population and limit the actions of the defense forces.

In the Donetsk region, the aggressor did not conduct active hostilities.

In the Tavriya direction, the aggressor is trying to establish a strict administrative and police regime in the temporarily occupied settlements of the Kherson region.

No active actions of the Russian invaders were noted in the South Bug direction.  The aggressor continues to shell civilian infrastructure, increasing the logistics system of the group.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine, in close cooperation with other components of the Defense Forces, are resisting the Russian aggressors, inflicting significant losses on their manpower and military equipment.

Keep calm! We believe in the Armed Forces of Ukraine!
