Chasiv Yar remains under Ukrainian control, despite intense fighting and enemy attempts to break through to the town. Ukrainian forces have achieved some tactical success in the Kupyansk and Lyman directions.
Currently, the most intense fighting is taking place in the areas of Pervomaiske and Vodyane, as well as east of Chasovyi Yar. The enemy continues to conduct offensives day and night. However, Chasiv Yar remains under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and all enemy attempts to break through to the settlement have failed. Also on the Kupyansk and Lyman directions, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have some tactical success, said on Saturday the Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Oleksandr Syrsky, reports UNN.
The situation in the area of the Ukrainian Defense Forces operation remains difficult. The enemy, using superiority in air, missiles and artillery ammunition, is trying to achieve its goal of reaching the administrative border of Donetsk region
According to him, the enemy continues to conduct offensive actions day and night, using assault groups supported by armored vehicles. In some areas, they are trying to conduct assault operations on foot, in waves, from platoon to company, sometimes battalion.
According to Syrsky, the situation is particularly difficult in the Bakhmut sector in the areas east of Chasovyi Yar and Klishchiyivka; in the Avdiivka sector - in the areas of Berdychiv, Orlivka, Vodyane, Pervomayske; in the Novopavlivka sector - in the area of Novomykhailivka.
The fiercest fighting is currently taking place in the areas of Pervomaiske and Vodyane, as well as east of Chasovyi Yar, where the enemy is trying to break through the defense of our troops.

In addition, the situation also remains tense at the Liman, Orikhiv and Kherson directions.
Thus, in the Liman sector, the enemy is conducting local offensives in the areas of Bilohorivka and Vesele; in the Orikhiv sector, in the areas of Robotyne and Verbove to restore the lost ground; in the Kherson sector, the enemy is trying to force our troops from the bridgehead on the left bank of the Dnipro River near Krynka.
However, there is no success in these areas, noted Syrsky. "At the same time, we have some tactical success on the Kupyansk and Lyman directions," said Syrsky.
The defense forces continue to steadfastly hold their lines and positions, exhausting the enemy and inflicting significant losses in personnel, weapons and military equipment.
