The two hundred ninety-first (291) day of the heroic resistance of the Ukrainian people to a Russian military large-scale invasion continues.

Russian occupiers do not stop striking civilian infrastructure objects and civilian homes on the territory of Ukraine, violating the norms of International Humanitarian Law, laws and customs of war.

During the day, the enemy carried out 5 airstrikes and launched more than 40 MLRS attacks.

There is still a threat of the enemy launching strikes with the use of missiles and attacking UAVs against the objects of the energy system and critical infrastructure throughout the territory of Ukraine.

In the Volyn and Polissya directions, the situation has not changed significantly, and no signs of the formation of enemy offensive groups have been detected.

In the Slobozhansk direction, the enemy shelled the areas of the settlements of Strilecha, Krasne, Starytsa, Vovchanski Khutory, Okhrimivka, Ambarne, Dvorichanske, Fiholivka, Dvorichna, and Kupyansk of the Kharkiv region.

On the Kupyansk and Lyman directions, the enemy inflicted fire damage near the settlements of Makiivka, Ploshchanka, Nevske, and Chervonpopivka in the Luhansk region and Terny, Kolodyazi, Zarichne, Dibrova, and Yakovlivka in the Kharkiv region.

In the Bakhmut and Avdiivka directions, the enemy continues to attempt to break through our troops' defense. Areas of twenty-six settlements were hit by fire from tanks and artillery. Among them are Verkhnokamianske, Vasyukivka, Soledar, Bakhmut, Klishchiivka, Bila Hora, Avdiivka, Opytne, Krasnohorivka and Maryinka of the Donetsk region. The occupiers also carried out an airstrike near Klishchiivka.

In the direction of Novopavlivka, the enemy is defending and shelling our positions with mortars, barrels and rocket artillery near the settlements of Velyka Novosilka, Zolota Nyva, Pavlivka and Vuhledar of the Donetsk region.

On the Zaporizhzhia direction, Vremivka in the Donetsk region and Temyrivka, Olhivske, Gulyaipole, Dorozhnyanka, Orihiv, Novoandriivka, Shcherbaky, Lobkovo and Plavna in Zaporizhzhia region were affected by enemy fire.

In the Kherson direction, the occupiers shelled, in particular, Havrylivka, Dudchany, Kachkarivka, Zmiivka, Beryslav, Ivanivka, Zelenivka, Inzhenerne, Antonivka and Dniprovske, and the city of Kherson.

Russian occupation leadership continues the forced passporting of the population of the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine. These measures are ongoing in the Melitopol district of the Zaporizhzhia region. Ukrainian hryvnias are gradually withdrawn from the circulation of trade networks, forcing the population to switch to Russian rubles.

The occupiers are also trying to financially encourage the local population to collaborate, providing cash assistance to pensioners in the amount of 10,000 rubles and charging a higher salary to loyal local residents who agreed to work in the institutions of the so-called occupying power.

During the current 24 hours, Ukrainian aviation has carried out 5 strikes on areas where personnel, weapons, and military equipment are concentrated. Units of rocket troops and artillery at the same time hit 7 control points, 10 personnel concentration areas, an artillery concentration area and an enemy ammunition depot.

Glory to Ukraine!
