Fighting continues intensively in eastern Ukraine, where the Ukrainian army has reported a change in tactics by Russian troops. Russia is preparing to deploy troops in Donetsk for a "decisive breakthrough," a Ukrainian unit warned on Facebook.

The intense fighting continues in eastern Ukraine, especially in the strategic city of Pokrovsk, where Russian troops are adopting new tactics to break through Ukrainian lines. American President Donald Trump's efforts to mediate a peace agreement have not yielded results, and the positions between Ukraine and Russia remain distant. While Russia controls a large part of Donbas, Ukrainian President Zelensky refuses to cede territories.
