Russian forces continued offensive operations near Bilohorivka but did not make any confirmed advances

Russian forces captured Shevchenko village and are now less than 4 kilometers from Pokrovsk

Russian forces advanced near Borova, Toretsk, Pokrovsk, and Kurakhove.

Almost all of Kurakhovo is occupied by the enemy and its retention by several units is an exclusively political task. The city has become a place for troop deployment and accumulation for further enemy actions toward Dachne and southward. Moreover, the Russians are already transferring some units to another section near Myrnohrad where an increase in enemy attacks is expected.

Control over Kurakhovo gives the Russian occupation forces many advantages for developing an offensive to the west. The presence of Defense Forces there only adds additional difficulty to units in that area.

DeepState analysts reported that Russian troops continue to seize territory in the Donetsk region, advancing in Toretsk, Zelene, and Petropavlivka.
