In the village of Krasnopillia, one person was killed as a result of Russian artillery shelling. Further details about the victim are not yet available.

The communities of Khotin, Yunakivka, Bilopillia, Velyka Pysarivka, Esman, and Seredyna-Buda were also targeted with Russian artillery, missiles, drones, mortar, and mines.
