Russia announces a new field gain in eastern Ukraine. If the Russian army is able to control Chasiv Yar, it may be able to intensify its attacks on Kramatorsk.

Ukraine and Russia again exchanged air attacks on Friday night, killing two people on the Russian side. The Ukrainian city of Kharkiv, which has been partially deprived of electricity since strikes yesterday, was targeted again. The governor of the Russian Belgorod province, which borders Ukraine, said that two civilians were killed and 7 others were injured as a result of a drone attack.
