South of Izum (to the south of previous map), the towns of Krymky & Aleksandrovka have been captured by Rus forces. There are many forest fires in many of these areas which have affected operations for both sides. Aleksandrovka changed hands briefly recently 2 times
Fighting for Shandrigolovka (black sq) which the Rus claim to control & Ukr trying to regain. Rus sources also say forward units entered Novoselka to the S (red sq). Locals say, Rus patrols are there checking documents & looking for Ukr ter-def
Further to the East, around #Yampol (forest fires here as well until recently), there was a Ukr counter attack from the south which was reportedly defeated. The Rus have extended the zone of control to the West of Yampol (Yampil) incl the town of Stavky
Bit more E, at #Belgorovka we have conflicting reports. Ukr Telegram chanels are claiming the Rus pontoon bridge was destroyed & a clean up op is under way. However, AFU command says the Rus are firing on the supply road to the South.
So contested ground
#Severodonetsk
Chechens reported control of all of #Rubeznoye, incl Industrial zone to the S + clearing of area W of SD. mystery is who controls the green sq on maps. Only Rybar so far claims that area as Rus. If confirmed SD is surrounded on 3 sides
