Since the beginning of the day, 71 combat engagements took place in the frontline in Ukraine. Russian occupants fired almost 2.3 thousand times at Ukrainian positions and populated areas using various types of weapons.
What is the current situation at the front
According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in the Kharkiv sector, Russian occupants carried out three attacks near Vovchansk and Tykhy during the day. Defense Forces units successfully repelled two assaults by the Russian army, and another firefight is ongoing.
In the Kupyansk sector, Ukrainian troops repelled four attacks near Pishchane, Berestove and in the direction of Hlushkivka. One firefight is still ongoing, but the situation is under control.
In the Liman sector, the enemy attacked 12 times, trying to advance towards Makiivka, Nevske, Novosadove and in Serebryansky forest. Three firefights are currently underway.
In the Siversky sector, Ukrainian troops repelled six enemy assaults in the areas of Ivan-Daryivka, Verkhnekamianske, Spirne and Vyymka. Fighting is still ongoing in three locations.
Five combat engagements took place in the Kramatorsk sector. Occupants were active in the area of Chasovyi Yar, Klishchiyivka and Ivanivske. Four attempts by the enemy to push Ukrainian units back proved to be in vain. The battle near Chasovyi Yar continues.
In the Toretsk sector, the enemy tried to break into the Ukrainian defense four times. During the day, the occupants attacked the positions of Ukrainian defenders near the settlements of Zalizne, Druzhba and New York. Two attacks were repelled, two are still ongoing.

Ukrainian troops now up to 30km inside Russia, Moscow says:
Ukrainian troops have advanced up to 30km inside Russia, in what has become the deepest and most significant incursion since Moscow began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
Russia’s defence ministry said its forces had engaged Ukrainian troops near the villages of Tolpino and Obshchy Kolodez, as the offensive in the Kursk region entered a sixth day.
Foreign ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova accused Kyiv of “intimidating the peaceful population of Russia”.
President Volodymyr Zelensky, who directly acknowledged the attack for the first time in an address last night, said 2,000 cross-border attacks had been launched by Russia from Kursk this summer.
“Artillery, mortars, drones. We also record missile strikes, and each such strike deserves a fair response,” Mr Zelensky told the country in his nightly address from Kyiv.
A senior Ukrainian official told the AFP news agency that thousands of troops were engaged in the operation, far more than the small incursion initially reported by Russian border guards.
While Ukrainian-backed sabotage groups have launched intermittent cross-border incursions, the Kursk offensive marks the biggest co-ordinated attack on Russian territory by Kyiv’s conventional forces.
“We are on the offensive. The aim is to stretch the positions of the enemy, to inflict maximum losses and to destabilise the situation in Russia as they are unable to protect their own border,” the official said.
Russia’s defence ministry said on Sunday that its forces had “foiled attempts by enemy mobile groups with armoured vehicles to break through deep into Russian territory”.
But in an apparent admission that Kyiv’s forces have now advanced deep into the Kursk border region, the defence ministry reported engaging Ukrainian troops near the villages of Tolpino and Obshchy Kolodez – which are about 25km and 30km from the Russia-Ukraine border.
Footage circulating online and verified by the BBC also appeared to show a Russian strike near the village of Levshinka, around 25km from the border.
Ukrainian troops have claimed to have captured a number of settlements in the Kursk region. In Guevo, a village about 3km inside Russia, soldiers filmed themselves removing the Russian flag from an administrative building.
Clips have also emerged of Ukrainian troops seizing administrative buildings in Sverdlikovo and Poroz, while intense fighting has been reported in Sudzha – a town of about 5,000 people. —>READ MORE HERE
