In the Sievierstkh region, Russian forces captured some Ukrainian prisoners when clearing the forest area north of Serebryanka. After the Russians captured Serebryanka, the Ukrainian forces in the forest area faced the dilemma of being surrounded by Russian forces, and with difficult supply lines, these Ukrainian forces, known as "Children of the Forest," began to abandon their positions in the forest and flee.
After capturing Serebryanka, the Russian forces could conduct a pincer movement on the Sievierstkh region from the north, which is very unfavorable for the Ukrainian defenders in the lowlands.
