"The enemy advanced near Pazeno, Rusyn Yar, and Varvarivka," the DeepState Telegram channel states.
It is also reported that the Defense Forces have cleared territories near the villages of Orestopil and Oleksiivka in the Dnipropetrovsk region.
There is no mention of the capture or liberation of specific settlements. On the project maps, Pazeno is shown as controlled by Russia, while Rusyn Yar and Varvarivka are in the penetration zone, and Orestopil and Oleksiivka are shown as controlled by the Defense Forces.
