Ukrainians have launched an offensive near Kharkiv.

Ukrainian fighters are having successes in the Kharkiv direction, reports focus.ua. Several Telegram channels report that the Ukrainian armed forces are "mopping up" the settlements of Hlyboke and Lukyantsy. However, the tense situation remains in Vovchansk, the AFU General Staff reports in its evening bulletin.

"Final battles on mopping up Hlyboke and Lukyantsy continue in Kharkiv region, the situation is not clear yet, it will be possible to say something definite when the guys will finally be able to gain a foothold, but it is a matter of the next few days," writes a lieutenant of the Armed Forces of Ukraine under the call sign "Alex".

Also several other Telegram channels report about the success of the AFU in this direction, but without details.

All of them also report about the difficult situation in the Vovchansk direction, where, as the authors of the posts predict, the enemy will involve reserves. So the officer "Alex" refutes information about the encirclement of the 71st Separate Yeager Brigade, about which the propaganda Russian media wrote. And confirms that the fighting in the residential area continues.

The AFU General Staff reports that the situation in the Pokrovsk direction remains the hottest. Preliminary, the losses of the aggressor for today in this direction amounted to about 180 occupants killed and wounded. Since the beginning of the day, there have been 113 military clashes. The Ukrainian armed forces repelled four attacks on Vovchansk, while two more clashes are still ongoing.
