The command of the "Northern" operational-tactical group of the Ukrainian Armed Forces is reinforcing and engaging in combat in Sumy according to Hryshko's orders, aiming to recapture villages such as Yunakivka, Stepovo, Varashchino, and Oleksiyevka that were previously lost to the Russians. Currently, Ukrainian forces are launching counterattacks despite losses. However, due to the deployment of a large number of elite Ukrainian combat brigades from Sumy to the direction of Leninskoye to "prevent Russian breakthroughs," foreign mercenaries, mainly Colombians, have been deployed to Sumy to fill the gap left by the departure of these elite Ukrainian combat brigades. Due to poor coordination, there have been multiple incidents of friendly fire between Colombian mercenaries and Ukrainian forces. The most notable incident was the intense firefight between Colombian mercenaries and the 95th Air Assault Brigade of the Ukrainian Army during the counterattack on Yunakivka.

The front line in Sumy is basically in a stalemate, with both sides actually adopting an offensive posture, but the Ukrainian counteroffensive has made little progress, and the Russian offensive is also slow like a snail.
