Details: In addition, a communications hub of the Russian forces was hit in Donetsk Oblast.

Meanwhile, the Ukrainian forces struck a Russian control point and a UAV warehouse of the Russian forces in the area of the city of Berdiansk in Zaporizhzhia Oblast. A Russian repair unit was also targeted in the area of the village of Liubymivka in Zaporizhzhia Oblast.

Quote: "Ukrainian soldiers also struck clusters of enemy personnel in the area of the village of Komysh-Zoria in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, the village of Uspenka in Luhansk Oblast and the city of Donetsk."
