April 2, the Russian TG channel "Military Chronicles" reported that to the northwest of Novgorod-Siversky (New York), the Russian military continued its offensive north of the Panтелейmonivka (Ukrainian: Panjateriemonivka) settlement and reached the edge of the Valentynivka settlement.
This is a tactical move. After securing the settlements east of H20 Highway, the Russian military must advance westward along the highway section in the New York area. In this case, gaining control of the highway will greatly facilitate the Russian military's advancement.
The Ukrainian official source DEEPSTATE reported that to the southwest of New York, after clearing the area, the Russian military fully occupied Panjateriemonivka, and the Ukrainian troops withdrew from this region.
