Kyiv Independent → Source tone: certain

Russian attacks against Donetsk Oblast injured five people, with two injuries in Pokrovsk, two in Shevchenko village, and one in Andriivka.

Kyiv Post → Source tone: likely

Russian advances into less well-defended areas in western Donetsk enabled by the loss of Vuhledar.

UNIAN → Source tone: likely

Ukrainian defenders are still holding Kurakhovo, but continuing to hold the city under conditions where Russian occupiers have semi-encircled it is not very reasonable. The 3rd Assault Brigade has been attracted to the Kurakhovo direction, including to help organize troop withdrawal to pre-prepared defensive positions.
