Heavy fighting continues along Ukrainian front as daily engagements exceed 250

Intense combat operations persist along eastern and northern sectors of the front line, with Ukraine's General Staff recording up to 254 combat engagements over a 24-hour period. Russian forces launched dozens of assaults attempting to breach Ukrainian defensive positions near Lyman, Pokrovsk, and Kostiantynivka.

On the Kupiansk front, Ukrainian units conducted infantry operations on the right bank of the Oskil River following electronic warfare operations that disabled Russian drone capabilities. Further reports indicated potential Ukrainian advances near Lyman. However, official Russian sources claimed control over several border settlements in the Sumy region, while Russian General Staff Chief Valery Gerasimov denied Ukrainian tactical progress in Zaporizhzhia.
