Fierce fighting is currently ongoing around the Ukrainian town of Vovchansk as Ukrainian troops are working to isolate Russian units that have crossed the nearby border. The combat is particularly intense at an aggregate plant located on the northern edge of Vovchansk, as reported by military bloggers from both sides of the conflict.
According to Ukrainian squad commander Stanislav Buniatov, known as Osman, the situation in Vovchansk, east of Kharkiv and near the state border, is described as 'difficult but controlled.' Buniatov mentioned that Russian troops are currently 'surrounded,' with Ukrainian forces successfully holding their positions, conducting occasional assaults, liberating territory, and pushing the enemy back.
