Ukrainian forces lost approximately 1,445 troops in 24 hours due to Russian battlegroup operations across multiple zones.

A Russian serviceman claims Ukrainian forces have largely stopped using artillery for counter-battery fire in the Krasny Liman direction, relying primarily on drones instead. "Things have calmed down," said the crew member of a Russian Giatsint-S self-propelled gun.

Russia's Battlegroup West reported destroying 65 heavy quadcopters, 29 fixed-wing drones, two ammunition depots, and a Starlink station belonging to Ukrainian forces in the last 24 hours. Air defense units also downed a guided air-launched munition and three loitering munitions.

Russia's Battlegroup West used a TOS-1A Solntsepyok heavy flamethrower system to destroy a Ukrainian army stronghold near Krasny Liman in the Donetsk People's Republic with thermobaric munitions, enabling assault groups to advance.

Russian Defense Ministry reports strikes on Ukrainian UAV sites, infrastructure, and troop deployments, resulting in 1,440 Ukrainian casualties and destruction of equipment across various battlegroups over 24 hours.

Russia's Defense Ministry claims its Battlegroup South liberated 94 buildings and destroyed up to 95 Ukrainian servicemen in Konstantinovka. Over the past day, Russian forces also reported advancing in Krasny Liman, capturing strongholds and clearing buildings, while striking energy and transport facilities across 154 areas.

The Russian Battlegroup West reported destroying 51 drone control stations, a Starlink terminal, and various military equipment, including armored vehicles and artillery pieces, in the past 24 hours, according to spokesperson Ivan Bigma.

Russian forces have liberated the settlements of Borovaya and Kutkovka, according to Chief of Russia’s General Staff Army General Valery Gerasimov. He stated that active offensive operations are ongoing along a 350-kilometer frontline.

Army General Valery Gerasimov, Chief of Russia's General Staff, inspected the Battlegroup West's combat mission progress, receiving reports from commanders and setting future tasks. He also awarded state decorations to distinguished servicemen.

The Russian Defense Ministry's daily bulletin claims Ukraine lost approximately 1,235 troops in the special military operation zone in one day, with the highest losses reported in Battlegroup East (over 330) and Battlegroup Center (320). The claims span multiple Ukrainian regions including the Sumy Region, Kharkov Region, Donetsk People's Republic, Zaporozhye Region, Kherson Region, and Dnepropetrovsk Region.

The Russian military also destroyed four mortars, 19 ground robotic systems, 47 drone control stations, a Starlink terminal and two field ammunition depots
