Ukraine's General Staff reported that due to the lack of metal tags with a personal number that can be used to identify the body of a fallen soldier, the leadership of the 20th Army units operating in Luhansk Oblast have ordered personnel to wear a bullet casing with a slip of paper in it in their breast pocket. On this piece of paper, each Russian occupier must write down information about himself, his personal number, etc. 

It is noted that Moscow has begun a campaign to mobilise scientists. In particular, the staff of the Polyus Research Institute, which is Russia's leading research centre in the field of laser technology, has received education regarding the social guarantees and benefits available for conscripts.

Over the past day, Ukraine's Air Force delivered 15 strikes on clusters of Russian personnel. Two Russian jets have been shot down: a Su-24M and a Su-25.

In addition, units from Rocket Forces and Artillery targeted one command post, seven clusters of Russian military, two electronic warfare stations and one ammunition dump used by the Russian occupiers.
