Over the past day, Russian invaders have launched seven missile strikes and 31 air strikes, and opened fire with multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS) 73 times. The threat of enemy air and missile strikes on critical infrastructure is persisting all over Ukraine.

Russian troops are conducting offensive actions in such directions as Bakmut, Avdiivka and Lyman, and attempting to improve their tactical position in the Kupiansk direction.
