On September 15, the Kalynovskyi Regiment published a video from Klishchiivka, claiming that it had been liberated from Russian occupiers. However, the post was later deleted, and the unit said that fighting was still ongoing in the village.

On the same day, the village of Andriivka, near Klishchiivka, had been reported de-occupied. Later, the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces reported partial successes near the village.

In a report from the Institute for the Study of War, it was noted that battles are taking place in the Verbov area, but as of September 15, it is likely that the Russians still maintain control over it.
