According to Kovalion, on the Kupiansk front, Ukraine’s armed forces repelled Russian attacks near Synivka, Ivanivka, and Zybyne settlements in Kharkiv Oblast.
The Ukrainian soldiers also repelled over 60 Russian attacks on the Lyman front near Andriivka, Makiivka, and Bilohorivka settlements.
On the Bahmut front, Russian troops unsuccessfully attempted to regain lost positions in Klishchiivka, Andriivka, and the eastern part of Dyliivka districts in the Donetsk Oblast, the spokesman adds.
In the Avdiivka, Mariinka, and Shakhtarsk fronts, according to Kovaliov, the Russian soldiers conducted offensive operations to establish full control over the settlement of Mariinka. During the last week, the enemy made nearly 8 unsuccessful attempts to push Ukrainian forces units out of their positions.
