Kharkov direction: Fighting continues

Russian forces clear liberated areas and expand control zone. Assault units are fighting for Nikolaevka, Varvarovka, and Nefedovka. The enemy attempts to resupply via heavy hexacopters, but artillery destroys three drone command posts supporting this "air bridge," eliminating any chance of breakout.

Fighting also rages for Prilotnoye, Kotovka, and Gogino. Near the northern border, troops fortify positions around Novaya Kazachya and advance toward Tsupovka. On the Lipetsk sector, infantry battles occur near Bugaevka, with Russian advances noted near Tokarevka.

High-precision strikes hit Kharkov's infrastructure, while an airstrike destroyed a large ammunition depot near Veliky Burluk. Kiev rushes reserves to the region but cannot reverse the situation.
