[ColonelCassad] 1. Mariupol. Street fighting continues. According to DPR estimates, out of 14,500 thousand personnel at the time of the formation of the boiler, about half remained in combat-ready condition in Mariupol. The rest were killed, wounded, missing, captured or infiltrated into the Zaporozhye region.

2. Marinka. Continues assault on the village. The troops are slowly advancing, but there is still a lot of work to be done before the complete clearing of this fortified area.

3. Ugledar. The troops are approaching Velyka Novoselka from the south, and also pushed through the defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and advanced towards Novomikhailovka. Carbon has not yet been taken.

4. Avdievka. No significant changes. The counterattacking units of the 25th Brigade were knocked out of Verkhnetoretsky. There are fights in the Novoselka-2 area.

5. LPR. No changes in Lisichansk, Severodonetsk and Popasna. Units from Chechnya have been deployed to the front to take part in the cleansing of settlements.

6. Izyum. Fighting continues, but it's too early to talk about a turning point. At the same time, attacks on the Slavyansko-Kramatorsk agglomeration intensified, as well as strikes on the railway junction in Pavlograd and objects in Lozovaya.

7. Kharkov. No significant changes. Fighting north and east of the city. The main battles, as before, are going somewhere on the outskirts

8. Kyiv. No big changes. Despite the "counteroffensive," today Ukraine admitted that the RF Armed Forces control Bucha, Gostomel and part of Irpin. And the main task is to keep Irpen. They also sucked out of the finger “I will win in Makarov” by hanging the Ukrainian flag there, as a couple of weeks ago in the “taken Bucha.” At the same time, there is no video that would confirm the full control of the RF Armed Forces over Makarov. To the west of Kyiv, medium-intensity fighting continued northeast of Brovar. Chernigov without changes.

9. Nikolaev-Odessa. New serious blows to the city. The port infrastructure is seriously damaged. Several objects and concentrations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were destroyed. There are no active offensive actions. In the Odessa area, according to a number of reports, the Admiral Makarov frigate destroyed the Ukrainian ship Neteshyn, which laid mines.

10. Zaporozhye. The direction of Kamensky-Orekhov-Gulyaipol is getting stronger. There is a regrouping of forces. But the offensive is unlikely to begin before the cleansing of Mariupol. Nikopol - no change.
