Frontline Situation Report – June 2024

Overall SITREP:

Ukrainian defenders successfully halted the Russian advance in Kharkiv Oblast. Timely arrival of Ukrainian reinforcements not only stabilized the situation but also reversed some of the Russian gains.

The situation in the east, particularly in Donetsk Oblast, remains challenging for Ukrainian forces. Despite suffering heavy losses, the enemy continues to make small daily advances. Although this approach is unsustainable in the long term, the enemy possesses sufficient resources to maintain this campaign for several months.
