On the Volyn, Polissia, Siverskyi and Slobozhanskyi directions, the operational situation has not changed significantly. The enemy maintains a military presence near the state border of Ukraine, but the formation of offensive groups has not been detected. At the same time, the enemy continues to engineer terrain in the border areas of Bryansk and Kursk regions. During the day, the occupiers shelled the areas of Myhalchyna Sloboda, Chernihiv Region, Znob-Novgorodsk, Bachivsk, Starykov, and Shalygine, Sumy Region, and Strylecha, Hlyboke, Lukyantsi, Gatyshche, and Vovchansk in Kharkiv Region.

The enemy continues to suffer losses. Thus, 150 mercenaries of the so-called “Wagner” PMC were brought to the territory of the Bilovodsk district hospital in the temporarily occupied territory of the Luhansk region for treatment.
In the city of Energodar, temporarily captured by russia, at the Zaporizhzhya NPP, the shortage of skilled workers who can ensure the vital activity of the nuclear power plant is growing catastrophically. After the russian occupiers employed people without appropriate education and experience at the NPP, the russian representatives of “Rosatom” have expired their contract. At the same time, they were refused to sign a new or extend an existing contract. They also refused to return to russia, since there is no one in particular to work at the NPP. All this can lead to unpredictable consequences.
During the day, the Aviation of the Defense Forces of Ukraine carried out 10 strikes on areas of concentration of personnel and military equipment of the occupiers.
