Frontline situation
According to the General Staff, the Ukrainian Defense Forces continue their offensive operation in the Melitopol direction, consolidate their positions, and engage in counter-battery measures. There were 30 combat clashes during the past day.
According to a report from the Institute for the Study of War, the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Zaporizhzhia region likely breached the most heavily fortified line of defense held by Russian occupiers, and subsequent advances may not be as strongly resisted.
