On the Lyman direction, Russian occupying forces have evidently succeeded in capturing the village of Ivanovka on the right bank of the Black Zherebets River, north of Ternovy, and establishing a tactical foothold there.

This was reported by the coordinator of the "Information Resistance" group, military expert, and retired colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Konstantin Mashovets, on his Telegram channel.

According to the military expert, there is nothing surprising about this, as the advanced units and formations of the enemy's 20th and 25th combined arms armies have been persistently attacking in the area of the village of Terny and our entire foothold along the Black Zherebets River for over a month, regardless of losses.

The expert noted that the combat readiness of our forward units and formations defending in this direction raises many questions, particularly regarding personnel shortages, as well as armaments and military equipment.

Earlier, the commander of the platoon from the 24th separate assault battalion "Aidar," Stanislav Bunyatov, with the call sign "Osman," reported on his Telegram channel "They Say Sniper" that Russian occupying forces managed to breach our defenses in the Lyman direction and are advancing from Ivanovka towards the settlement of Kolodyazi.

Additionally, Konstantin Mashovets mentioned that in the Toretsk direction, the advanced units of the Russian occupying forces achieved success in the central part of Toretsk itself, but to the south of the city, towards Nelipovka - Leonidovka, the enemy's attacks were unsuccessful.
