Quote: "There has been an increase in the grouping of occupation forces in and around Melitopol, Zaporizhzhia Oblast. Fortifications are being built around the perimeter of the city. Civilians are not allowed to approach the airfield area. Convoys are arriving in the city from the direction of Tokmak.
There has been a decrease in the number of enemy personnel in the temporarily occupied settlements of Kakhovka, Tavriisk and Nova Kakhovka, Kherson Oblast. There is still a small number of occupiers in the cities, and patrols are moving along the streets."
Details: The occupier is focusing its efforts on deterring the actions of the Defence Forces in certain areas and continues to equip its defensive lines on the left bank of the Dnipro. At the same time, it is conducting offensive operations on the Bakhmut, Avdiivka and Novopavlivsk fronts. To compensate for its losses, the occupier is continuing to train mobilised personnel at military educational institutions and training centres, subsequently moving them to combat areas.
