"Russians claim that they are making all these territorial gains and they're either ones they've already claimed some time before or they're just not true at all."

📍 FRONT-LINE UPDATE -🗺️ MAP LEGEND
Frontline Update
- In Ternova, northeast of Kharkiv, Russians have broken through Ukrainian defences. The purpose of this is unclear but could be probing for weaknesses or fixing Ukrainian forces.
- Heavy shelling continues along the frontlines, particularly in Zaporizhzhia Oblast.
- In the Kupyansk area, there are reports that Ukrainians are preparing for an attack on the Synkivka-Vilshana axis. Russians claim Ukrainians have partly withdrawn forces from Kupyansk.
- Fierce battles continue in the Kreminna area. Russians have sent elite airborne troops (VDV) to defend the town. Ukrainians are unlikely to advance further south due to these reinforcements.
- In Bakhmut, Wagner troops continue to incrementally advance. The town is being heavily shelled and destroyed. Russians are advancing to the north and south of the town, threatening supply lines.
- Russians have made marginal gains in Vuhledar and Pisky, but are struggling to take Marinka despite repeated claims. A Russian mil-blogger claims they have seized initiative in western Marinka.
- In Vuhledar, Ukrainians have launched successful counterattacks, recapturing eastern areas and inflicting heavy losses on Russian forces. The situation remains difficult but stable for now.
- There is a lack of reporting on the Zaporizhzhia frontline, suggesting only limited operations. Zaporizhzhia and Heliopol have been hit by rockets and shelling overnight.
