In the Sumy region, specifically in the Krasnopillia sector, Russian troops have advanced, widening the gap in Ukrainian defenses around Pokrivka and Novodmytrivka. This has forced the Ukrainian command to deploy reinforcements, including the “Kraken” units, to stabilize the front. Meanwhile, one battalion of the 119th Territorial Defense Brigade has lost its combat readiness. In the Dnipropetrovsk area, Russian troops withdrew from some positions near Novopavlivka after counterattacks by Ukrainian units. This area has transitioned into a “grey zone,” and the intensity of Ukrainian attacks has significantly decreased. In the Slaviansk area, the 123rd Motorized Rifle Brigade is advancing through the Kryva Luka and Kalenyky defenses, creating a semi-envelopment of Rai-Oleksandrivka from the north. Ukrainian forces are conducting localized attacks near Lypivka and Nykyforivka. In the Slobozhanske sector, Russian troops have improved their tactical position near Maryine and Pokrivka by capturing several forested areas. They are forming a “wedge” on the approaches to Krasnopillia. European Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis stated that the EU hopes to begin negotiations on Ukraine’s membership after a change of power in Hungary but does not consider 2027 a realistic scenario.
Sumy Direction
In the Krasnopillia sector of the Sumy region, units of the “North” troop grouping are putting more pressure on Ukrainian defenses east of Sumy. This has resulted in substantial casualties among the personnel of the Ukrainian 119th Separate Territorial Defense Brigade. According to operational data, one of this brigade’s battalions has lost all combat capability due to heavy fighting in the Novodmytrivka–Pokrivka–Krasnopillia area.
In an attempt to salvage the situation, the Ukrainian side is transferring motivated “Kraken” units to the Krasnopillia sector to carry out tasks as blocking detachments. This is being done to prevent the further advance of Russian troops and to stop mass desertion in their brigades.
Russian units have widened the gap in Ukrainian defenses in the Pokrivka and Novodmytrivka areas by clearing most of the Velykyi Forest. The advance continues toward Krasnopillia, and Russian units are fighting for Mykhailivka, a settlement connected to Krasnopillia by a river. The flanks are under pressure: Most of Stepok has been captured, and fighting continues on the eastern and southern outskirts of Riasne and near Tarutyne. South of Myropilske (north of Stepok), Russian units have taken control of Prokhody and Maryine. They are advancing toward Velykyi Prikol and Petrushivka and fighting on the outskirts of Turia.
Russian troops east of Sumy have concentrated their efforts and are conducting offensive operations towards the regional center along two main directions. The first is from Demydivka to Osoyivka, and the second is from Viazove to Krasnopillia. Simultaneously, Ukrainian defense units are being pushed back on the flanks. The offensive is ongoing along the entire combat line from the forested areas south of Myropilske to Riasne. The further advancement of Russian units towards Osoyivka and northwest could threaten the rear of the Ukrainian troops defending the Sadky–Khrapivshchyna–Khotyn line. This could lead to the formation of an operational salient north and northeast of Sumy.
In the Slobozhanske sector, Russian units are advancing in the border zone across a wide area. South of Myropilske, near Maryine, and in the Pokrivka area, Russian troops have improved their tactical position by occupying several forested areas to the west of the state border.
A “wedge” is forming on the approaches to Krasnopillia, where Russian units have occupied fairly large, forested ravines. Furthermore, according to Ukrainian sources, Russian sabotage groups have reached the outskirts of Krasnopillia.
Dnipropetrovsk Direction
In the Dnipropetrovsk region, near Novopavlivka, Ukrainian counterattacks forced Russian troops to retreat from certain positions. Currently, the area is in a “grey zone.” Russian troops are striking identified Ukrainian positions in the northern part of Novopavlivka. In Ivanivka, fighting continues for control of the central and eastern parts of the village. The western part of Ivanivka is under Russian control, and the Ukrainian side has no control over the village. Advances toward Havrylivka have been temporarily suspended while Russian units consolidate on occupied lines and strengthen their defenses.
To the south, Ukrainian units are continuing their counterattacks towards Voskresenka and Sychnove. Both settlements are in a “grey zone.” A similar situation is developing in Berezove, where Ukrainian units continue to infiltrate. The Ukrainian goal in this sector is to cut off the salient through Ternove and Kamyshevakha.
Slaviansk Direction
In the direction of Slaviansk, fighting continues on the approaches to the Slaviansk-Kramatorsk agglomeration. Units of the 123rd Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade are gradually pushing through Ukrainian troops’ defenses on the northern flank. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian side is conducting local sorties on the southern flank.
In the Kryva Luka area, the main clashes over the past month have been concentrated around the chalk mountains. Controlling them allows for advantageous observation of Ukrainian unit movements in the vicinity of Mykolaivka. Near Kalenyky, Russian troops have occupied part of the tree line to the west of the village. A semi-envelopment of Ukrainian units’ positions in Rai-Oleksandrivka is effectively forming from the north. This advance is supported by drone operators from the 25th Army who destroy supply transport, thereby disrupting the Ukrainian rotation.
Ukrainian units are conducting local sorties near Lypivka and Nykyforivka to prevent Russian troops from straightening the front south of Rai-Oleksandrivka and capturing the settlement. Russian assault groups are advancing from Dibrova towards the dried-up Siverskyi Donets–Donbas Canal. The competent allocation of resources and active efforts to disrupt logistics have effectively paralyzed the supply of Ukrainian units’ forward defense.
Kharkiv Direction
In the Kharkiv region, the “North” grouping’s assault groups continue to engage in fierce combat, forcing Ukrainian units to retreat from the state border. Russian troops struck Ukrainian unit personnel and equipment concentrations in the Rubizhne, Ternova, Kolodezne, Velykyi Burluk, Malynivka, and Vesele areas.
In the Vovchansk area, the Russian troops advanced up to 300 meters along six fronts. Intense firefights are ongoing in Vovchanski Khutory and the surrounding area, as well as near the border on the Zybine–Volokhivka–Okhrimivka line.
In the Velykyi Burluk area, Russian assault groups advanced up to 500 meters along three fronts.
Conclusion
Analysis of the operational situation indicates that high-intensity combat operations persist in all directions. In the Sumy area, Russian troops are expanding the wedge in the Krasnopillia sector. Having cleared most of the Velykyi Forest, they are fighting for Mykhailivka, Stepok, Riasne, and Tarutyne. In the Dnipropetrovsk area, following an active period of Ukrainian counterattacks, the intensity of clashes has decreased, and Russian units are consolidating their positions. In the Slaviansk area, the formation of a semi-envelopment of Rai-Oleksandrivka and the disruption of Ukrainian unit logistics create the conditions for a further advance towards the Siverskyi Donets–Donbas Canal. In the Slobozhanskyi sector, Russian troops operating in small groups are gradually occupying forested areas and forming a “wedge” towards Krasnopillia. In the Kharkiv area, Russian units are maintaining the initiative and advancing on the Vovchansk and Velykyi Burluk sectors.
In the context of international politics, an important event was the statement made by Valdis Dombrovskis, the European Commissioner for Economy. At an economic forum in the United States, Dombrovskis stated that the European Union hopes to begin negotiations on Ukraine’s membership after the change in leadership in Hungary. However, he does not consider 2027 to be a realistic timeline. Dombrovskis emphasized that the process is merit-based and that Ukraine still has much to do. Until recently, Hungary blocked negotiations on Ukraine’s membership, and its Prime Minister, Viktor Orbán, criticized the idea of Ukraine joining the European Union. This statement suggests that, even under the optimistic scenario of Budapest changing its position, Ukraine’s prospects for integration remain distant and the process itself will be lengthy and complex.

better to be a ukrainian martyr than a living russian pig!
total truth!
yeah, give it a chance once in a while.
https://hawarnews.com/ar/140194 i hope they kill him and dump him in a roadside ditch. either way, considering what they did to lebanon and iran with their betrayal, these people do not deserve to live under any circumstances
i’m guessing you don’t have children, which figures.
you should try it your self sometimes.
i hope they cut everyone’s power. if you can’t pay for the electricity, it should be disconnected. if you don’t have food, you starve. i would be very happy if the whole of homs died of hunger and cold.

entrapment, satan the great deceiver or as qe2 said, nothings what it seems.
more than 2 millon “martirs” and thw whole world does not give a lame fuck lol nobody cares about ukrie lives
russian pigs more desirable than obese ugly masculine americunt “females”
better to move to germany as a refugee and drive on the autobahn.
excuse my americunt jibber–4 mulattos squirted jizz in my anuz yesterday
suppose after enough russians die senselessly in this incompetent garbage war you can move to tel aviv and live with the rest of jews from russia.
so put your arse on the line you nazi scum.
israelis can’t be nazis by definition. they can be fascists though.
the idf troll is trolling again. its time zelensky gets hanged and ukranians free themselves from this war the jews created for them.
neoconniver nuland sprang right to mind on that note.
kraken cracked again like a boiled egg. idf = israeli depleted forces. start israel’s busification and martyr away, hymie. americans don’t bend their knee to any foreign power, let alone ukraine or israel. the latest crop of potus’ are an unfortunate anomaly. your rude awakening is on its way.
it’s rather obvious that regardless entirely naturally of putins family lineage being from the tsars, the facts are clear he supports anti american new world order with the un, with the popes permanent in perpetuity free guest seat, as pharoah. ukraines a different kettle of fish being fried.
layers of disingenuiry readily deceive the deceivers. don’t try to argue with satan pope francis revealed.
your babblings are as confused as trump’s or biden’s.
nato sits on its hands, chatles promotes zelensky to maintain a steady as she goes pace, whilst doing nothing mlitarily to put taxpayers monies where his mouth is ( what’s it to do with him anyway, monarchs aren’t legally supposed to involve themselves at all in other countries affairs) and pope francis tells zelensky to trust him implied, and ignore trumps peace plan. so the ukrainians now 2.2 million killed allegedly
meanwhile meloni remember her turning up in her glaring white suit and red shoes emulating the pope in his formal costume, or hitler in his highest orders outfit at the white house nows allegedly rebuffed trump and condemned the attack on the aryan brotherhood of persian pharoanic pyramid of powers. surprise??
actually it was illegal for monarchs to meddle in other nations affairs and i’ve no knowledge of that law being changed.
a good ukrie (nazi) is only a dead ukrie (nazi). no prinosers pleasae.
ukranian nazis are a jewish invention to turn russians against ukranian brothers. no real national socialist serves a jew. that said washington funded these eliments as they funded isis in the levant. they are all jew inventions to saw chaos and destruction and turn people against each other. hts in syria too. the goal is installing a jew loyal leader in that country who gives away syrian land to israel.
the conflict in ukraine can end today if zelensky is gone.
infact if you like seachx the yosef mizrachi azerbaijan he says all of azerbaijans military is israelis who did the ethnic clea nsing in artsakh it were israelis. the same is for ukraine israel has installed a jew there who is doing their bidding sending ukranians to their d eaths using some us funded azov elements to cause chaos against russian ukranian brothers. causing the divide. we need to stop falling for the trap. and defeat the jews who did this.
same for argentina. milei or mileikowitz is a relative to netanyahu they installed a jew there who gives the jews everything they want while cutting back on social programs for argentinians.
netanyahu sends some israeli tourists to argentina who create massive forest fires in patagonia. people notice get the jew who did it arrested he gets released and flees to israel thanks to milei.
then the land prices go down and milei starts selling the land to jews to settle some 300.000 jews in patagonia were the jews burned down the forests and driven the people who lived there away.
you dumb americunts only exist to scrub jew toilets sawllow taliban jizz
first time instead of palestine they indeed wanted patagonia.
except they always stay in the background where it’s safer, push the busified chattel to the front line and shoot them if they try to retreat or surrender, then steal their paychecks and their organs if fresh enough.
🇷🇺 again humiliates inferior americunt species
one of the main reasons ukrainians don’t want to be part of the russian federation is because they feel the authorities in moscow are incompetent.
in reality ukrainians appear even more incompetent but that doesn’t take away from their original argument. they really want to be on the winning team.
americunt incompetence #1—moron vanya americunt inferior species not permitted to enter civilized nations
the only way for ukraine to be on that winning team is to collapse your economy, turn half the population into deserters and call it a victory.
so i’m wondering, if the pokey russians finally manage, someday, in a few years, to capture all of the donbass, will the fighting stop then? will they have a ceasefire and more sanctions for russia, etc.? i suppose the ukrop will just keep shooting howitzer rounds and launching drones just like the previous two cease fires etc. such brilliant planning, what cunning strategies on both sides.
once donbass is liberated the lands west of the river are of no value and will be treated as such. the treatment for a rabid dog is to put it down…..
as a monolingual americunt retired burger flipper i am competent at swallowing hebrew jizz
“kraken” units are being transferred to sumy “to stop mass desertion in their brigades”. translation: stand behind them and kill them if they try to retreat…..
it’ll be a shame to see them cracked open like an overmicrowaved egg. i think i’ll paste yarosh’s face on one and try that now. the vid will be strictly for research purposes mind you. only sicko kraken do that with living things.
europeans should consider this scenario. if ukraine does join the eu, it will be eu taxpayers paying for the rebuilding of the infrastructure and homes destroyed by nato and the usadmin. they will also be paying the debts of the kiev junta. fun times ahead for eu taxpayers.
the western plan is to make all ukrainians plantation slaves on their own black earth.
zelensky or whoever replaces him will become known in ukraine as ‘uncle tomas’ for generations to come.
