Heavy fighting is underway in the Donetsk region. According to the Ministry of Defense, the enemy continues to concentrate main efforts on Kupiansk, Lyman, Bakhmut, Avdiivka and Marinka directions. Shelling of the region continues. In particular, the enemy launched 10 air strikes on Avdiivka alone over the course of the day.
