Toretsky section:
In the Toretsk section of the Donetsk direction, our armed forces advanced into the settlement of Druzhba, expanding the control zone on its northern outskirts. Fighting is underway and the building of school No. 7.
In the settlement of Kirovo, fighters of our units advanced in the area of Tsentralnaya Street and reached the administrative borders of Toretsk.
The waste heap of the Severnaya mine was in deep semi-envelopment, but the Ukrainian Armed Forces still have approaches to it through the forest located between Kirovo and Toretsk and Kirovo and Artemovo.
In Artemovo, fighting continues for the territory of a substation southwest of the Artem mine waste heap.
The Russian Armed Forces also made significant advances to the southwest from the settlement of Leninskoye, driving the enemy out of strongholds and reaching the reservoirs between Leninskoye and Novgorodskoye (New York).
In Novgorodskoye, our troops, as a result of successful military operations, drove the enemy out of the eastern part of the settlement. In the settlement itself, fierce battles are underway for its center.
The line of contact is very dynamic, but our forces are gradually pushing the enemy in the direction of the village of Nelepovka.
We also moved west from Novgorodskoye in the direction of Rozovka and Panteleimonovka. In the area of the latter, we approached its outskirts.
Pokrovsky section:
In the Pokrovsky sector, our armed forces advanced toward the settlement of Lisichnoe last week, driving the enemy out of a company stronghold to the east of it. After which, the settlement itself was liberated. The cleanup is being completed in the settlements of Ivanovka and Sergeevka. Their territories are under the control of our units.
The settlement of Veseloe was also liberated last week, and to the west of it, our armed forces drove the enemy out of a number of strongholds, and our fighters reached the settlement of Grodovka, having secured a foothold on the territory of a former brick factory.
In the settlement of Zhelannoe, to which our soldiers also reached from the north, having occupied the territory of farms there, a small part of the settlement near the ponds in the southeast of the settlement was under enemy control, however, the enemy was forced to roll back to the settlement of Novozhelannoye.
Ours, having cut off the road from it to Novoselovka Pervaya and having taken a half-envelopment of the strong point near the crossing over the Volchya River, are now moving in the direction of the settlement of Kamyshevka, thus, the RF Armed Forces are moving to the rear of the Ukrainian Armed Forces units located in the area of the Karlovskoye Reservoir.
South Donetsk direction:
In the Yuzhno-Donetsk direction, our troops are advancing in the eastern part of the settlement of Konstantinovka, having already taken control of more than half of it. The fighting is approaching the 0532 highway, which runs almost through the center of the settlement. The Ukrainian Armed Forces units located there are complaining online that not only are their fighters being transferred to other directions, but their ammunition is also being taken away, which naturally reduces their ability to defend themselves. However, the enemy still has forces here.
South of Konstantinovka, our fighters reached highway 0532 in another area - in the area of the settlement of Vodyanoe. There, our armed forces came close to a strong point located near a T-shaped intersection.
Kupyansk direction:
In the Kupyansk direction, our armed forces have expanded the control zone in the area of the settlement Peschanoye, having advanced north of it. The fighters of our units are driving out the enemy here, gradually entering the commanding heights. Although our reconnaissance and sabotage groups are already operating in the area of the settlements of Glushkovka and Kruglyakovka, control over these heights is important for the advancement of the main forces in their direction.
Access to them will also give our forces more effective fire control over the crossing over the Oskol River to the settlement of Senkovo. And this is important, since the river is much wider to the south, and there are no crossings over it for quite a long distance. Therefore, the supply of the Zaoskol group of the Ukrainian Armed Forces is very dependent on this crossing.
Our soldiers also advanced in the area of the settlement of Stelmakhovka. Here, units of the Russian Armed Forces reached the right bank of the Zherebets River in the area of the settlement of Novoselovskoye and along it have practically already broken through to Stelmakhovka, which is less than a kilometer away.
