Russian troops are actively trying to go around the system of fortifications from the north and reach the Bakhmut-Slavyansk highway, completely depriving the Bakhmut garrison of supplies. In addition, this will allow us to get closer to Berkhovka and, in the future, to take the group in the northern suburbs of Bakhmut into a mini-boiler.

At the same time, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is increasing its combat and logistical capabilities in the north of the Kharkiv region and specifically in the Kupyansk region. In Kupyansk-Uzlovy and Borovaya, pontoon crossings were built to simplify the supply of troops.

In addition, units of the 16th battalion of the 58th Motorized Infantry Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are being transferred from the Zaporozhye direction to Bolshoi Burluk and Kupyansk. The delivery of personnel and equipment is carried out in a combined way - by rail and by road.

Positional battles continue in the Limansky sector. Soldiers of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are fixed in the liberated territories, and the formations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are accumulating forces for a counteroffensive.

The command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine expects the intensification of hostilities: the forces of the 25th air brigade are concentrated at the Yampolovka-Terny line, and units of the 66th mechanized brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are concentrated in the area of Balka Zhuravka.

In Pesky-Radkovsky, the presence of personnel of the 1st battalion of the newly created 67th Brigade from the 10th Army Corps of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is noted.
