Fighting continues in Chasiv Yar and Toretsk.


Fighting continues in the cities of Chasiv Yar and Toretsk, reported the spokesman for the operational strategic grouping of the 'Khortytsia' troops, Viktor Trehubov, during a telethon. Clashes are ongoing along the 'Siversky Donets – Donbas' canal, which cuts through the city of Chasiv Yar.
One of the enemy's objectives remains a refractory materials plant in the city. However, enemy attacks there have not been successful.
Clashes are also occurring in the urban development of Toretsk, added Trehubov.
It is difficult to say anything about the situation there because constant combat operations are taking place on both sides.
Local authorities regularly call on the residents of Donetsk region to evacuate to safer areas.
Earlier, an officer from 'Azov' spoke about the situation in Toretsk.
Intelligence also reported the number of Russian troops in Ukraine.
Former commander Muzhenko revealed the Russians' plans regarding Pokrovsk.
Ukrainian forces have regained lost positions near Siversk. Russian troops continue to advance close to Toretsk, Velyka Novosilka, as well as in the Pokrovsk and Kurakhove directions.
In light of Russia's intentions to capture the critically important mine in Pokrovsk, Kyiv's allies must fulfill their promises and provide Ukraine with all necessary assistance as soon as possible. This was reported in a new Bloomberg article.
