The communities of Nova Sloboda, Bilopillia, Myropillia, Shalyhyne, Krasnopillia, and Yunakiv came under fire, according to the administration.

According to the post, a total of 76 explosions were recorded across the six communities, including mortar attacks, artillery fire, and mines.

One civilian was injured as a result of one of the shelling in Myropillia. Two residential buildings, a garage, and a car were also damaged.
