Ukraine in brief:
The russian occupiers are trying to keep the temporarily captured territories, are concentrating their efforts on restraining the actions of the Defense Forces of Ukraine in certain areas, and are continuing to equip defensive lines on the left bank of the Dnipro. At the same time, the enemy is conducting offensive actions in the Bakhmut, Avdiivka and Novopavlivka directions.
During this day, the enemy launched a massive missile attack on the military and civilian infrastructure of several Oblasts of Ukraine. The results of the Air Defense Forces of Ukraine and the consequences of enemy attacks on critical infrastructure facilities are currently being clarified. In addition, the occupiers do not stop shelling the positions of our troops and settlements along the contact line.
The situation in the Volyn and Polissya directions has not changed significantly. Belarus continues to support the armed aggression of russia against Ukraine, providing it with infrastructure, territory and airspace. The threat of the enemy launching missile and air strikes from the territory and airspace of belarus remains.
The enemy shelled in other directions:
in the Siversky direction – from barrel artillery, in the areas of Ryzhivka, Kindrativka, Slavhorod settlements of the Sumy region;
in the Slobozhansky direction – from mortars, barrel and rocket artillery, in the areas of Staritsa and Bochkove settlements;

And in the city of Kadiivka, in the Luhansk Oblast, the occupiers go from house to house and carry out forced mobilization of the local population. In some areas of the temporarily occupied territory of the Luhansk Oblast, there are cases of extortion of money for the possibility of avoiding mobilization. Thus, in the Starobilsk Raion, representatives of local so-called “force structures” offer to avoid “mobilization” for a monetary reward of up to 15 thousand dollars.
