Quote: "The containment of the enemy continues in the areas of Novomykailivka and Krasnohorivka – 11 attacks have been repelled. In the Marinka area, the enemy is amassing forces for further assaults. They continue to spread disinformation and provocations about the alleged complete capture of the city. The defence of Marinka continues."

Previously: On 5 December, UK Defence Intelligence reported that the Russians had captured most of Marinka, but that the city has been completely destroyed.
