Details: It is reported that Russian forces acted north of the settlement Novoplatonivka – towards Nova Kruhliakivka and Zahryzove. The Russian forces involved about 50 people in the attempted breakthrough.

Soldiers of the 77th brigade detected the Russians' intentions in time and, in coordination with adjacent units, stopped the assault by Russian forces. At least 40 Russian soldiers were wiped out.

Quote: "As a result of the operation, the Russians did not achieve their objectives and the situation in the area of responsibility has been stabilised.

In the area of responsibility of the 77th Separate Airmobile Dnipro Brigade, the Russians continue to operate in small groups and try to infiltrate between positions. The actions of Russian forces are under constant control of the defence forces and are being stopped."
