This is a special issue of the Rondeli Russian Military Digest dedicated to the Russo-Ukrainian War, composed on the basis of numerous open sources.

 

Donbas Area

Russian advances were rather limited during the reported period. The most significant one was them gaining several kilometers while advancing to the southeast from Yatskivka, in the area east of Izyum.

Russian attacks failed southwest and south of Izyum, near villages of Velyka Komyshuvakha (which they assaulted but failed to take), Virnopillya and Nova Dmytrivka.

Russians again attempted and failed to advance in their street battles with Ukrainians within Rubizhne. In Popasna, they have managed to take the southern half of the town, while Ukrainians maintain control of its northern part.
