Ukrainian units continue to hold back intense offensive pressure from Russian forces, repelling attacks on multiple fronts and inflicting significant losses on the enemy, according to a post by the Ukrainian General Staff on Telegram.

As of 10:00 p.m. Kyiv time on November 24, the Defense Forces are focusing on disrupting Russian assault operations and depleting their resources. In the past 24 hours, 150 combat engagements were recorded.

The enemy carried out 29 airstrikes, used 62 guided bombs, launched 2,683 kamikaze drones, and conducted 3,150 shelling attacks on Ukrainian positions and populated areas.

In the Northern-Slobozhanskyi and Kursk directions, three attacks and 155 shelling incidents were recorded.

In the Southern-Slobozhanskyi direction, the enemy assaulted positions near Vovchansk, Synelnykove, and Kolodiazhne, but five attempts to advance were stopped by Ukrainian forces.

In the Kupiansk direction, defenders repelled three attacks near Pishchane and Petropavlivka.

In the Lyman direction, Ukrainian units held back 10 breakthrough attempts near Shandryholove, Novoselivka, Hrekivka, Nadiia, Zarichne, and in the direction of Stavky. Several battles are ongoing.

In the Sloviansk direction, 11 attacks were repelled near Dronivka, Vyimka, Serebrianka, Siversk, as well as on the approaches to Zvanivka, Yampil, and Zakotne. One engagement remains active.

In the Kramatorsk direction, the enemy did not conduct any offensive actions.

In the Kostiantynivka direction, Russian assault groups attempted to advance 19 times in the areas of Oleksandro-Shultyne, Ivanopillia, Kleban-Byk, Yablunivka, Pleshchiivka, Poltavka, and towards Kostyantynivka, Stepanivka, and Sofiivka. The Defense Forces repelled 15 attacks, and fighting continues.

In the Pokrovsk direction, the highest intensity of fighting remains: 47 attacks were recorded near Shakhove, Novyi Shakhove, Rodynske, Krasnyi Lyman, Myrnohrad, Pokrovsk, Kotlyne, Novoserhiivka, Novoekonomichne, Molodetske, Filiya, and Dachne.

Ukrainian forces eliminated 50 Russian soldiers, wounded 30, destroyed 21 drones, and destroyed several enemy fortifications.

Additionally, a vehicle, an artillery system, and 11 enemy personnel positions were destroyed.

In the Oleksandrivka direction, 13 enemy attacks were stopped, and an airstrike was carried out near Velykomykhailivka.

In the Huliaipole direction, 15 attacks were repelled in the areas of Zelenyi Hai, Zatyshshia, Solodke, and in the directions of Varvarivka and Dobropillia.

In the Orikhiv direction, the Defense Forces stopped one attack near Prymorske.

In the Prydniproskyi direction, both Russian attempts to advance toward the Antonivskyi Bridge failed.

Ukraine continues to refine the proposed peace plan, seeking to preserve provisions that align with national interests and noting that several key issues require coordination with foreign partners to form a unified position.

In the Zaporizhzhia direction, discipline has sharply deteriorated in one Russian unit, where widespread alcohol consumption has led to fatal incidents and poses additional danger to the servicemen themselves.
