Russian forces have entered Verkhnya Vilkovska in the Volchansk direction, controlling the northern part of the village, including the Galubzovka railway station. Previously, Russian forces also entered Lyman, to the west of Verkhnya Vilkovska.
In the southeast of the Volchansk city area, Russian forces have also advanced several blocks. From a military perspective, the supply lines of Ukrainian forces in this corner have been cut off, and most of the city area has already been captured by Russian forces; it is no longer meaningful for the remaining Ukrainian forces to continue fighting in the city. However, from a political and psychological perspective, the persistence of the remaining Ukrainian forces is still important for Ukraine, allowing the Ukrainian government to continue claiming that the Ukrainian forces "control Volchansk" and "the situation is under control".
