To the southwest, the Russians consolidated in the positions in the forest plantations northeast of Ivanivka, while other assault groups penetrated north to the treelines on the tactical heights southwest of Novopavlivka.

In the Dobropillya direction, Russian forces continued to advance, despite heavy Ukrainian resistance.

In the southwest, Russian forces managed to secure the remaining positions in the treelines and forested areas south of the former "Zaporozhskaya" Mine, and continued attempts at infiltrating it from the south. They also recaptured a number of positions in the northernmost streets of Rodynske and gained a foothold in the railway windbreaks northwest of the city, from which they are infiltrating southwest into the Zaporozhskaya mine and northwest towards the highway.

To the northeast, the Russians improved their positions in the railway windbreaks south of Dorozhnje and in the treelines southwest of Nykanorivka. At the same time, they are carrying out attacks on the treelines across the railway line southeast of Bilytske, and in the western dachas of Zatyshok.

To the north, Russian forces consolidated in the treeline west of Ivanivka and in the railway windbreaks north of Dorozhnje, and captured new positions in the treelines east of Novyi Donbas. From there, they are continuing their infiltrations into Novyi Donbas, especially into the southeastern houses of the village. The entirety of the village is currently in the grey-zone, with no Russian consolidation yet.

+ ~4.16 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Dobropillya and Druzhkivka directions, Russian forces continued to advance, infiltrating deep into Ukrainian lines.

To the east, following earlier deep infiltrations, the Russians managed to consolidate in the southernmost part of Toretske. Other assault groups crossed the Kazenyi Torets River from neighbouring Sofiivka and infiltrated all the way to the northern part of Toretske, bringing most of the village into the grey-zone.

To the northeast, Russian forces captured the forest plantations on both banks of the Poltavka River northwest of the reservoir, and completed the capture of Novopavlivka.

In the northeast, Russian forces recaptured previously lost positions in the eastern and central part of Predtechyne, while other assault groups continued attacking along the highway to the forest. Attacks are also being carried out on the trench fortifications northwest of Predtechyne, which are now in the grey-zone.

To the west, the Russians continued improving their positions in the private sector northwest of the highway, and managed to capture the Kostyantynivka Railway Station and the surrounding high-rise residential buildings. Infiltrations are also being carried out across the highway and into the forests east and northeast of the Shanghai Pond.
