The border village of Hrabovske in Sumy region has come under the control of Russian occupation forces.
This is according to data from the analytical project “DeepState.”
Official Ukrainian authorities have not yet confirmed this information, but the situation around the settlement remains extremely tense.
According to the updated DeepState map, Siversk in Donetsk region has also been added to the list of occupied territories, from which Ukrainian Defense Forces previously withdrew according to the decision of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
This indicates further enemy advances in certain areas of the front, despite the significant losses they are suffering. Ukrainian military commanders describe the situation as dynamic and requiring constant review of the defense line.
According to the General Staff, as of 10:00 p.m. on December 23, 110 clashes with the enemy were recorded along the frontline, demonstrating high intensity of fighting along the entire contact line.
The hottest area remained the Pokrovsk direction, where Russian forces carried out 29 attacks but suffered serious personnel and equipment losses. Ukrainian units actively use drones, artillery, and other means of destruction to hold back the offensive.
According to preliminary Ukrainian military estimates, on the Pokrovsk direction alone in one day: 62 enemy soldiers killed and 24 wounded, 18 drones destroyed, 3 vehicles destroyed, 2 enemy artillery systems destroyed, 1 tank destroyed, several vehicles, one more artillery system, and 11 shelters where Russian troops were stationed hit
These figures indicate the high effectiveness of Ukrainian defense units in this sector of the front.
