Since the start of the day, Russian troops have launched 61 attacks on the positions of Ukrainian defenders, with the heaviest fighting occurring across several fronts.

This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The heaviest fighting is taking place in the Kostyantynivka, Pokrovsk, Huliaipole, as well as the Northern Slobozhanshchyna and Kursk sectors.

The occupiers also shelled border settlements in the Sumy region.

Ten clashes occurred in the Northern Slobozhansky and Kursky sectors, some of which are ongoing. Additionally, the enemy carried out dozens of shelling attacks, including the use of multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS), and launched airstrikes.

Active assaults are also continuing in the eastern sectors—specifically in the Kostiantynivka and Pokrovsk sectors, where 12 attacks were recorded in each.

In the south, the Defense Forces repelled 11 attacks in the Huliaipole sector, with several more attempted advances recorded near the Antonivsky Bridge.

No significant changes have occurred on other sections of the front.

Additionally, in the Pokrovsk direction, Russian forces are operating in small groups without launching a large-scale offensive.

Following the attack, an oil pumping station in the Volgograd region caught fire.
