The Defense Forces of Ukraine achieved tactical success in Mala Tokmachka–Robotyne sector, Zaporizhzhia region. The defenders gain a foothold on the achieved boundaries.

As Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine Hanna Maliar posted on Telegram, the offensive operation of the Ukrainian troops in Melitopol and Berdiansk directions is ongoing.
