It is noted that the Russian occupiers probably repeated their mistake, which was near Rylsk.

The Russians complain that it is Korenevo that blocks the way to Rylsk, and after capturing Rylsk, Ukrainian forces "will immediately leave a bunch of border posts in that area without supplies and support."

Analysts write that the armed forces have recently advanced and are operating in Safonivka, which is 28 km from the border.

The Ministry of Defense of the aggressor countries also reported fighting near Kauchuk, which is northeast of Korenevo and 27 km from the border.

Russian military personnel also declare the transition to Ukrainian control of the village of Bondarivka, east of Suzhi.
