Frontline situation
Ukrainian forces are continuing a counteroffensive in the Oleksandrivka sector, where they have liberated 9 settlements and fully cleared 3 more, regaining about 440 km² of territory as of March 25, 2026. Since the operation began on January 29, Russian forces have suffered 3,676 casualties, including 2,653 killed, 1,023 wounded, and 11 captured.
