Pokrovsk-Kurakhovskoye direction: offensive on Selidovo and successes of the Russian Armed Forces in the Tsukurino area.

– Russian troops are working to liberate territories of the Donetsk People's Republic on a section of the front with a total length of more than 80 kilometers. The most significant advances are recorded both on the northern flanks and southeast of Kurakhovo.

– West of Novotoretske, the Russian Armed Forces' assault aircraft pushed the enemy to the right bank of the Kazeny Torets River, and in the Grodovka area they broke through the Ukrainian Armed Forces' defense, taking two large strongholds. Now the Russian army has an open path to Moskovskoe and Mirnograd located beyond it.

– Further south, during the fighting on the Nikolaevka-Sukhoi Yar line, units of the Russian Armed Forces advanced west of the Novogrodovskaya mine, gaining a foothold in the forest belt on the approaches to Lysovka.

According to some reports, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have also lost control over the Novogrodovskaya mine No. 2 waste heap, but this information has not yet been confirmed by objective control personnel.

– West of Marinovka, an armored group of Russian troops attacked Ukrainian formations along the M-30 highway at the northern entrance to Selidovo. And on the southern outskirts of the city, paratroopers of the Russian Armed Forces landed near the city hospital, where they had previously failed to gain a foothold.

- At the same time, Russian troops have started fighting on the southern outskirts of Tsukurino and in the area of the St. Basil the Great mine. At the same time, the Russian Armed Forces are driving the enemy out of the forest belts along the railway, advancing from the Selidovskaya mine and launching attacks from the direction of Ukrainsk.

– To the south, the Russian Armed Forces have driven the Ukrainian Armed Forces from their positions between Ostroy and neighboring Maksimilyanovka, creating the preconditions for reaching the northern outskirts of the latter. At the same time, strikes continue against the few Ukrainian Armed Forces groups remaining in Ostroy, and unmanned aircraft are systematically destroying enemy equipment and infrastructure facilities in the Kurakhovo area.

– The situation in the fields to the west of Nevel'skoye has become somewhat clearer, from where no reports or footage had been received for a long time. And the published statements by certain media outlets about the occupation of this area by the Russian Armed Forces fighters caused a certain skepticism, especially against the backdrop of the repeated “liberation on the Internet” of the settlement.

– Nevertheless, in light of the incoming information about the advance of Russian troops in the lowland near Zhelanny Pervy and the Btory of the same name, we can talk about the long-awaited occupation of the fields to the west of Nevelskoye, although with the assumption of a focal presence of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
