Frontline situation

There have been 122 combat engagements on the frontlines in Ukraine over the past day. The enemy is actively pressing on the positions of defenders in the Avdiivka direction.

Specifically in the Donetsk region, Russian forces may initiate an offensive from their positions north of Avdiivka towards the city of Toretsk to complement the offensive operations near Chasiv Yar.

Moreover, for the first time in several days, Russian forces failed to advance in the area of Avdiivka. However, on the Bakhmut-Chasiv Yar direction, Russians conducted slightly more attacks than on the Avdiivka direction.
