Russian forces have captured the village of Severnye Shevkhovskye (also known as Verkhnye Shevkhovskye) on the south bank of the Siverskyi Donets River. This news was released by the Russian Ministry of Defense, and a Ukrainian soldier with the call sign "Muchnoy" also posted similar information online: "Russians have already established themselves on the south bank of the Siverskyi Donets River, and seem to be preparing to push their pressure to a new stage." The Ukrainian military said that after capturing Severnye Shevkhovskye, the Russians attacked Dronovka from the northeast.
Russian forces also captured the Yambir railway station, cutting off the railway between Kupiansk and Shevkhovskye, separating two groups of Ukrainian forces. Now, the Russians are actually treating Kupiansk and Shevkhovskye as one battlefield, which has placed great pressure on the Ukrainian defense.
