The Russian occupiers did not manage to advance further than 8-10 km from the border, Vovchansk remains under the control of Ukraine. However, the creeping offensive continues – at the beginning of the week, DeepState reported the advance of Russian troops near 10 settlements.
Russia continues to launch attacks with missiles, drones and KAB air bombs. Kharkiv remains the target of its daily attacks. At the end of the week, Russian missiles hit a printing house in Kharkiv, killing seven and injuring sixteen persons; earlier there were also strikes on a residential area.

At the end of the week it was reported about a debate in the White House – Blinken urges the president to allow Ukraine to shoot U.S. weapons into Russia.
