Avdievka. The advance of the Russian Armed Forces continues along the Petrovskoye (Stepovoe) - Ocheretino line, as well as in the Berdychi area. The speed of movement in this area is low (about 100 m every 48 hours), but is compensated by the decent width of the front and large losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Kupyansk. The pressure of the Russian Armed Forces continues in the area of Sin'kovka, Kislovka and Kotlyarovka. The activity of operational-tactical aviation and long-range artillery in the area of the Kupyansk-Uzlovoy station and in the surrounding area has increased significantly.
