Fighting for the village of Novooleksandrivka in Donetsk Oblast remains ongoing, despite DeepState's reports that Russian troops have seized the town, Ukraine's Armed Forces General Staff reported on June 23.
DeepState alleged that Russian forces are approaching the Pokrovsk-Kostyantynivka highway, while the Ukrainian military said that Russian forces continue their attempts to seize territory near Pokrovsk and Kurakhove.
Ukraine's defense forces are aware of the enemy's intentions and are doing everything to thwart them, the military added.
There were 116 combat clashes in the last 24 hours.
The Russians launched four missiles in two missile strikes, 70 anti-aircraft missiles in 47 airstrikes, and 444 kamikaze drone attacks.
The positions of Ukrainian troops were targeted 3,227 in the last day.
Russia continues to push for Pokrovsk, making 46 attempts to dislodge Ukrainian defenders during the day, More than half of their attacks originated from the Ocheretine area.
The situation in the area remains tense.
Ukrainian soldiers successfully repelled Russian advances in other areas - near Vovchansk and Kupyansk in Kharkiv Oblast, and near Lyman, Siversk, Toretsk, and Vremivka in Donetsk Oblast.
Russian forces continue to suffer significant losses in these attempts - just near Vovchansk, Russia lost 99 soldiers and 14 units of equipment.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
