📍 FRONT-LINE UPDATE -🗺️ MAP LEGEND
Northeast frontline - Kupiansk to Svatove to Kreminna axis
- Russian forces continue transferring reinforcements to the Kreminna area, possibly for a counter-attack
- Russians reportedly using sabotage groups disguised in Ukrainian uniforms to try to break through Ukrainian defences in Luhansk Oblast
- Russians gradually advancing along Mokivka-Zaravka-Balka river line. Geolocated footage shows them holding positions west of the Brova river.
- The village of Novoselivka, west of Kuzmivka, is important for attacking Svatove. Ukraine needs to gain sustained control of it to envelop Kuzmivka and Krivoshivka.
- Ukraine making slow progress. Next step would be to take high ground towards Soznovyi which overlooks Svatove.
- No signs yet of Russians crossing the Bakhmutovka River just north of Kreminna.
Bakhmut area
- Heavy fighting continues in urban areas of Bakhmut on Patrice Lumumba and Labor Reserve streets. Russians have not advanced further.
- Russians finding it difficult to fight through Klishchivka to the southwest. Ukrainian reinforcements present.
- South of Bakhmut, repelled Russian attacks around Krasnohorivka and Kamyanka.
- Russians destroyed 7 Ukrainian infantry fighting vehicles near Vodyane.
- Pressure on Pervomais'ke if Russians take Vodyane.
Donetsk Oblast - Avdiivka and Marinka
- Fierce fighting has resumed in the Avdiivka area after a quiet period
- Conflicting claims about Marinka:
- Some Russian sources claim they have cleared all high-rise buildings in the center and only 300m of the western outskirts remain to take full control
- Others say calling the liberation of Marinka "imminent" is premature as Ukrainians still hold western positions
- Ukraine reinforcing Marinka with Humvees for 35th Marine Brigade
- Repelled fighting around Pobjeda, Novomykhailivka, Vuhledar, Velyka Novosilka and towards Prechistivka
South - Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Crimea
- Nikopol and Marhanets, north of the Kakhovka Reservoir near Zaporizhzhia, hit again by Russian shelling. Shelling is relentless.
- Kherson City hit with incendiary munitions again, against international conventions. Continued Russian strikes on west bank of Kherson Oblast.
- Ukrainian counter-battery fire working in Kherson Oblast.
- Reports of Ukrainian drone swarms sent over Crimea to find weaknesses in air defences to exploit later.
