Territories along this bulge were liberated during the Ukrainian counteroffensive last summer [...]
Enemy forces want to advance and to continue pressing on the villages of Novomykhailivka and Heorhiivka and near the city of Krasnohorivka. As for today, no positions have been lost, and enemy forces have seen no success."
Details: Lykhovii said that Russia has deployed reserve forces to the Novopavlivka front, with a tank regiment being transferred from another front.
As before, the Novopavlivka and Avdiivka fronts remain the most active, and the line of contact is constantly shifting: "Yesterday we lost one position but recovered two others."
