Russia is trying to overcome the resistance of the Ukrainian troops and establish full control over the Luhansk region, moving units.

In the Kramatorsk direction (Donetsk region - Es.), Russia shelled the areas of Kryvya Luka, Kuzmynivka, and Hryhorivka with barrel and jet artillery. In an attempt to disrupt the operation of the control and communication system of Ukrainian forces, Russia is actively using radio-electronic warfare complexes.

In the Bakhmut direction (Donetsk region - Ed.), Russia shelled the areas of Ivano-Daryivka, Semihirya, and Vugleghirskaya TPP with barrel artillery. An air strike was carried out near Spirne.

In the Avdiyivka, Kurakhove, Novopavliv, and Zaporizhzhya directions, Russia is conducting a systematic fire attack on the positions of Ukrainian units in order to constrain their actions.

In the Southern Bug direction (southwest Ukraine - Ed.), Russia concentrated efforts to prevent the advance of Ukrainian units. Russian forces shelled from mortars, tanks, barrel and rocket artillery in the areas of Lymany, Posad-Pokrovske, Prybuzke, Myrne, Kotlyareve and Blagodatne settlements.

In the Dobryanka area, Ukrainian soldiers almost completely destroyed a Russian sabotage and reconnaissance group and successfully repelled the Russian assault that followed it.

In the Kharkiv direction, Russia is concentrating its efforts on holding the occupied lines, and is trying to conduct assaults on certain sections of the contact line. Russian forces carried out artillery fire in the areas of the settlements of Slatyne, Mala Danylivka, Ruski Tyshki, Vesele, Kutuzivka, Pryshyb and Husarivka. Near Shestakove, Russian forces remotely mined roads.

No changes in the condition and activity of units of the Belarusian Armed Forces were noted in the Volhynia and Polissya directions.

No signs of the creation of a Russian offensive group were found in the Siversk direction (north Ukraine - Ed.). In order to demonstrate the presence and constrain the actions of Ukrainian units, Russia keeps separate units of the Western Military District in the border areas of the Bryansk and Kursk regions.

Russia carried out artillery shelling and carried out airstrikes by army helicopters in the areas of Vovkivka, Myropillya, Kindrativka and Esman settlements of the Sumy region.

In the Black and Azov seas, Russia keeps four carriers of Caliber sea-based cruise missiles in readiness for launching missile strikes on infrastructure objects on the territory of Ukraine.

"Our rocket-artillery and aviation units continue to hit the enemy's strongholds, concentration points and warehouses in the designated directions," the General Staff writes.
