Frontline situation
The Armed Forces have regained positions near Vovchansk in the Kharkiv region. Meanwhile, the Russians have formed another army for deployment in the Kharkiv direction.
The fiercest battles are taking place in the Pokrovsk and Kramatorsk directions, as well as near Toretsk.
The Pentagon does not rule out that North Korea might send troops to assist Russia in the war against Ukraine. However, the department is convinced that these troops would become cannon fodder.
