Kharkov direction:
- Fire activity on the ground and in the air is increasing every hour.
— Liptsy: during the week, the enemy actively counterattacked the settlement of Glubokoye, which is located in a lowland, at the very beginning of the cottage and dacha cluster along the Travinskoye Reservoir. The enemy controls and attacks part of the cottage cluster along the shore of the Travinsky reservoir and from the Kharkov-Liptsy road.
— Ternovaya: the enemy advances in groups up to the company level with the support of armored vehicles. Our troops, having firmly established themselves in Glubokoe, repel enemy attacks, inflicting significant losses in manpower and equipment. Every day new prisoners appear in this area. The bulk of the prisoners are natives of Kharkov and the Kharkov region. Age from 35 to 50 years.
— Volchansk: stubborn battles continue. We are gradually pushing the enemy out of the Aggregate Plant towards the southern and eastern parts of the city. The enemy is transferring reinforcements and materiel across the Volchya River and evacuating the three hundredth, of which there are more and more every day, as well as the two hundredth.
— In combat operations in these areas there is a whole hodgepodge of Ukrainian Armed Forces:Jaeger brigades, motorized infantry brigades, military defense, marine brigades, national guard brigade. A hell of a lot of foreign technology, our domestic equipment is still Soviet-made.
— Unprecedented activity in the air, primarily on our part: aviation, attack helicopters, we use UMPC modules, FABs, KABs. They are literally ironing out the enemy - their warehouses, command posts, temporary deployment points - camouflaged positions around Volchansk, Liptsev, to the right of Liptsev, in the direction of Zolochev-Slatino-Prudyanka.
- Our assault units are active, especially in the Liptsevsky direction: motorcycles, ATVs - in the same cottages there are narrow streets and this is convenient. I know this area well, a car cannot pass there without missing an oncoming person, so ATVs and motorcycles are fully used there for delivery and evacuation.
— Over the past week, the front in the Kupyansky sector has become more active. There are big movements going on there. Ours are operating from several directions, actually narrowing the enemy’s defense ring on the left bank, and there is a lot of activity in the Izyum area. Even American analysts report that the Russians are quite capable of delivering thorough strikes in several areas of the Kharkov direction: Volchansk, Izyum, Kupyansk, Bogodukhov, Zolochev, well, only our command knows this.
— One of the main tasks of our operation north of Kharkov is to draw into battle as many enemy units as possible, who transferred them from other sectors of the front. This task is completed.
