Keep in mind, the frontline is constantly moving and positions are changing hands.

Kreminna-Svatove
The AFU repulsed attacks around Chervonopopivka, Verkhn'okam'yans'ke and Spirne. It's more or less completely silent from the Svatove direction at the movement.

Bakhmut
The AFU replused attacks around Rozdolivka, Blagodatne, Bakhmut and Klishchiivka. The situation seems stabilized for now. There has not been any significant change the last few days.

Donetsk
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of
Maryinka, Vugledar and Pavlivka. RuAF are using the 40th and 155th Naval Infantry Brigdes once again to attack in the Vugledar area. The RU NIBs have a decent track record and are considered among the better units in RuAF.

According to the latest information I have, RuAF have not entered the city it self and intense fighting is going on in the dachas SE of the city. RuAF are also trying to advance from the Pavlivka direction, unsure how far they have reach.

A small repetition of why Vuhledar is important for the Russians.
At the moment AFU have the Volnovakha-Donetsk railroad and H20 high way in artillery range. This affects the RU logistics from the eastern direction negatively.

As can be seen here, all railroad traffic must come via Crimea and the Kerch bridge, which I don't believe is fully operational for train traffic.

There are two railroad connection between Crimea and Kherson oblast. One results in a dead end, and the other is connected over a bridge. This means the entire RU southern frontline is extremely venerable once Ukraine receive longer range fires.
