On the Horlivka front, one person was killed in Chasiv Yar; six houses and two industrial buildings have also been damaged there. In Toretsk, the invaders damaged eight houses, an administrative building and a school, and in the morning the Russians struck the territory of the mine and an invincibility centre [a warm-up point with Internet access, tea and coffee; thousands of such points have been established all over Ukraine-controlled territory - ed.] with two missiles, causing no casualties.

In the city of New-York, one person was injured and three houses have been damaged. In Nikiforivka of the Soledar hromada, the Russians destroyed a shop and damaged four private and three apartment buildings.
