Three people had been killed and two wounded in Russian attacks on the towns of Siversk and Kostyantynivka.

Russian occupiers have sufficient resources for attacks not only in the Kurakhove area but also on other sectors of the front. The enemy is ready to 'burn their resources in the hell of war' to achieve territorial gains.

The enemy is actively attacking on 7 sectors of the front. If the enemy takes control of the territory in the Kurakhove area, they will redeploy forces and assets, strengthening assault units to further move toward the Pokrovsk agglomeration.

In the Toretsk direction, defenders repelled three attacks while three more combat engagements were ongoing.
