The front line continues to experience unprecedented activity — based on the latest data, nearly 170 combat engagements have been recorded, with the last 24 hours becoming especially tense
Particular attention is drawn to the Pokrovsk direction, where Ukrainian defenders managed to hold firm and, with renewed strength, repelled over 60 enemy attacks attempting to breakthrough the Ukrainian front from various directions. According to the operational summary from the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the overall statistics for the past day indicate a continuous series of hostilities across all sector of the front — 169 individual clashes. Of these, 61 took place on the Pokrovsk direction, where our soldiers succeeded in stopping and suppressing 61 enemy attempts to breach Ukrainian defenses. On the Kursk platoon area, located within the Russian operational space, Russian troops launched 31 attacks on Ukrainian positions, all of which were completely repelled. A particularly tense combat regime persists in Kharkiv region as well. Over the past day, four combat clashes unfolded in the areas of Vovchansk, Vovchansk Huts and Kamyanka. The situation on the Kupiansk direction remained tense — the occupiers carried out two attacks, which Ukrainian defenders managed to withstand and halt the enemy’s assault operations in the area of the green zone of Zelezna. On the Lyman direction, the enemy demonstrated heightened activity — 25 attempts to advance were recorded in areas around the settlements of Hrekyivka, Novy Mir, Karpivka, Lypove, Rіdkodub, and Torske, but all were fiercely repelled by Ukrainian artillery and infantry. No less tense is the situation on the Siversk direction, where Ukrainian forces defended their positions near Bilohorivka and Verkhnokamianske, preventing the enemy from moving further forward. In total, on the Kramatorsk direction, 8 combat encounters took place — near Kurdiumivka, Orikhovo-Vasylivka, as well as in the areas of Biloira, Markove, and Stupochki. Meanwhile, on the Toretsk sector, the enemy launched 11 attacks — in the areas of Toretsk, Rоманівка, and Rusyno Yar. All these assaults were fiercely repelled in favor of Ukrainian troops. A particular point of focus is the Pokrovsk direction, where Ukrainian forces managed to stop 61 attacks by the Russian aggressor, defending settlements such as Malynivka, Mirolyubivka, Hrodivka, Lysivka, Novoukrainka, Udačne, Novoserhiyivka, Kotlyarivka, Horyhove, and Andriivka. Additionally, on the Novopavlivsk direction, defenders repelled 13 enemy assaults near settlements including Odradne, Vesele, Vilne Pole, Novosilka, Novopil, and Bakharty. At the same time, regional reports indicate that active offensive actions by the enemy were not observed over the past day on the Huliaipole, Orikhiv, and Dnipro sectors, suggesting a certain lull in these areas of the front. However, the greatest tension remains in the eastern and southern regions. Regarding the overall situation, the enemy conducted over 170 artillery strikes yesterday — including two using multiple launch rocket systems. Additionally, Russian forces carried out 17 airstrikes, dropping 31 guided aerial bombs — a significant number aimed at destroying Ukrainian defensive positions and critical infrastructure. Despite this intensified aggression, Ukrainian forces acknowledge that they are preventing the enemy from advancing and are simply destroying their attempted incursions. In the past day, no signs of enemy formation of offensive groups were detected in the Volyn and Polissya regions, which provides the Ukrainian army with time and opportunities to strengthen their defensive lines. Ukrainian Armed Forces continue active operations in the enemy’s rear, inflicting substantial losses in personnel and equipment. This is a crucial factor in deterring Russian offensive plans and maintaining control over key strategic directions. Overall, the combat zone remains complex and tense, but Ukrainian defenders show resilience, steadfastness, and high professionalism. They not only hold the line but are also actively destroying enemy rear depots and sabotage targets, significantly diminishing their combat potential and laying the groundwork for possible future Ukrainian offensive operations.
