The enemy continues to conduct offensive operations, focusing its main efforts on the Kurakhovsky, Pokrovsky, Kupyansky, and Kharkiv directions. In addition, it conducts active assault operations in Volchansk and on the approaches to Chasovy Yar in order to capture and take control of these two settlements
According to him, in other directions, the enemy conducts offensive operations in order to stretch the active front line, bind our troops and prevent their transfer to other areas of combat operations.
In general, the situation remains difficult due to the high intensity of military operations and the widespread use of armored vehicles by the enemy, the use of a significant number of guided aerial bombs.
In the Kharkiv direction, the enemy concentrates its main efforts and tries to move towards Glubokoe - Liptsy, but suffers significant losses and has no success. in Volchansk, our main task at this stage is to contain the enemy, inflict maximum losses on him and gradually move forward to liberate our territories

There, the enemy is trying to break through the defenses of our troops from two directions, so fierce fighting continues in the area. The task of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is to stop the enemy and force him to go on the defensive.
My task is to provide this direction with a sufficient amount of ammunition and combat-ready reserves, which will significantly strengthen the defense. despite the complexity of the situation, we have a chance to change the situation in our favor. And the Defense Forces are doing everything possible for this
