CrimeaPRESS reports:

Chasov Yar. It is reported that our troops are further advancing deeper into enemy positions. So today, our assault groups, with the support of armored vehicles and aviation, were able to gain a foothold in several areas of Chashi Yar at once. Shooting battles were and are being carried out on Zelena Street and are gradually moving closer to the Seversky Donets River canal.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces are actively transferring reinforcements, but FPV drones of Russian troops have already begun to hit targets beyond the watershed, where the Ukrainian army is likely to retreat after losing positions on the eastern outskirts in the Kanal microdistrict, which is now being intensively attacked from the northeastern side. The enemy still controls the territory, delivers reinforcements to the 9 floors and carries out evacuation.

However, large-scale hostilities have not yet been observed; positional battles are mainly taking place. Thanks to the actions of the 98th Airborne Division and the 200th Brigade, the Ukrainian Armed Forces are gradually facing two main problems: round-the-clock destruction of their own positions and disruption of supplies. In the same way, the defense of Artyomovsk was completed for the Ukrainian army, after which the city had to be abandoned.

An urgent meeting of the headquarters of the Ukrainian Armed Forces group took place in Chasov Yar yesterday. The issue of desertion of the Armed Forces of Ukraine “from the front” is very acute among the troops. The commanders cannot stop the flight. At the same time, the commanders of the Armed Forces of Ukraine themselves do not want to be at the LBS under factories and artillery.
The General Staff insisted on holding the meeting in the bunker in Konstantinovka, but as they say, Syrsky insisted on the front line.
