Situation on the Hlukhiv direction, Sumy Oblast: Over the last month, low-intensity fighting has persisted in the Hlukhiv direction, with Russian and Ukrainian forces each attempting to improve their positions. In the north, Ukrainian forces cleared the surroundings of Bachivsk and Tovstodubove from earlier Russian infiltrations, and re-established control over most of Bachivsk. Other assault groups took up positions in the forests along the international border to the north, and carried out limited raiding actions into Bryansk Oblast towards the village of Troebortnoe. They also managed to recapture a number of treeline positions southeast of Bachivsk. Russian assault operations continue in the usual areas, including east and southeast of Bachivsk, and towards Tovstodubove from the border crossing. In the south, Russian forces continued to gradually advance north from Bila Bereza towards Ulanove, capturing a number of new treeline positions between the two settlements. Some forward assault groups are now operating in Ulanove, attempting to gain a foothold there and push the Ukrainians out of the remaining houses. Ukrainian forces are actively counterattacking, attempting to block the Russian infiltrators within the village. + ~21.20 km² in favour of Ukraine. + ~2.12 km² in favour of Russia. interactive map: amkmapping.com
