The Russian army continues its assault on the city. Fighting continues in the center.

20:20 Military expert Boris Rozhin about the situation in the Ocheretinsky breakthrough zone in the Donetsk section of the Northern Military District.

The Russian Armed Forces continue to expand the zone of control around the settlement. Ocheretino. Fighting continues in the direction of the settlement. Sokol, Novoaleksandrovka and Kalinovo.

South of the village Ocheretino RF Armed Forces continue pressure in the direction of the settlement. Novopokrovskoye, which has now been supplemented by an active offensive to the west of the settlement. Semyonovka, where the enemy lost a number of positions in the landings, which he had held since the beginning of the fighting on the settlement line. Berdychi - Tonenoye.

The enemy continues to draw up reserves to the “Ocheretinsky flower”, trying to reduce the risks of further breakthroughs in the direction of western Donbass, including withdrawing troops from the Zaporozhye and Kherson directions.

A difficult situation for the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the area of the settlement Chasov Yar also makes it difficult for reserves to maneuver in the Khar'kov direction and prevents the Armed Forces from concentrating in the area of the settlement. Ocheretino forces are necessary to relieve problems. In this regard, the strategy of the General Staff of the RF Armed Forces to draw down the reserves of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is bearing fruit.

In the area of the village Uman Armed Forces of the Russian Federation continue to fight in the village, having limited progress in the direction of the western outskirts. Fighting also continues for plantings north of the village. Umanskoe.

In the area of the village Netaylovo, Russian Armed Forces are fighting in the western part of the village and strengthening the control zone in the industrial zone.

There are also attacks on landings to the east and southeast of the village. Yasnobrodovka.

In general, the RF Armed Forces confidently maintain the initiative in this area. By transferring reserves, the enemy was able to partially slow down the development of the offensive of Russian troops, but could not completely stop it, which is the key to future problems for the Ukrainian Armed Forces west of Avdievka.

19:24 Numerous arrivals of the UMPC to the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the village of Urozhainoye on the Vremevsky sector of the front -video.

18:54 Statements by representatives of the North, West, South, Center, East and Dnepr groups on the progress of the special military operation (as of May 14, 2024) -video.

17:21 Telegram channel “Fisherman":

Slobozhansky direction: Control of the Russian Armed Forces over the northern part of Volchansk, battles near Liptsy and Lukyantsy.

In the Slobozhansky direction, Russian troops are advancing in the direction of Liptsy through the dachas. For now, combat operations are more like reconnaissance in force. The enemy forces gathered in the village are being attacked by artillery and air strikes.

In the Lukyantsy area, Russian attack aircraft reached the outskirts of the village and entered the territory of the settlement. It is still unclear whether the settlement was completely liberated or not. On the eastern flank, the Russian Armed Forces established control over Bugrovatka, while fighting was observed in neighboring Staritsa.

Information is circulating on the Internet about a meeting of attacking groups through Zelenoe, but in reality this is most likely not the case, since the gap between Lukyantsy and Zelenye is an open field, and between Zelenye and Ternova-Izbitsky there are fields and forest.

And in Volchansk, the enemy was driven out of the northern part of the city, and a clean-up operation is underway. According to preliminary data, the territory of Lyceum No. 1 and kindergarten No. 6 was taken. The status of the Volchansky Aggregate Plant, where the presence of Ukrainian forces may remain, remains unclear.

By the middle of the current day, in Volchansk itself one heavily damaged road bridge and another pedestrian bridge remained, so communication with the southern part of the city is still maintained.
