Frontline situation
Ukraine's General Staff says Ukrainian forces struck multiple Russian command posts, drone control centers, logistics hubs, and fuel infrastructure over the past day. The military also confirmed that the Syzran oil refinery in Russia's Samara region has shut down following a Ukrainian strike earlier this month.
Meanwhile, Ukraine's military denied Russian claims about the alleged capture of the village of Riasne in the Sumy region, calling them an information operation and media manipulation. The 14th Army Corps says the village remains under Ukrainian control, while Russian troops continue suffering heavy losses in the area.
