A Telegram channel reported that Russian forces have partially encircled Dobropillya from the southwest. If these positions are secured, the remaining garrison in the city could soon be in operational encirclement. The source advised against premature celebration regarding Orekhove, stating that enemy forces have not yet retreated from the city but their position has significantly worsened due to logistical issues.

The source also noted that while the enemy was engaged in offensive operations near Prymorske and Stepnohirsk, the central front section weakened. Reserves were reportedly redeployed to Donbas and are currently being used in the areas of Sloviansk, Kramatorsk, and Krasnyi Lyman.
