"Over the past day, the enemy concentrated its efforts in Kharkiv region, as well as in the Kramatorsk and Pokrovsk sectors. In some areas, the enemy had some partial success, while in others our defenders are pushing the enemy back and improving their tactical position. However, the Russian army does not stop trying to storm the positions of our defenders, using artillery, tanks, drones of various types, and, of course, aviation to launch missile and bomb strikes. The enemy keeps trying to conduct both missile and bomb attacks and to launch hostile missile strikes on cities and towns that it can reach with such actions," Voloshyn said.
