This was reported by the commander of the Ground Forces, Colonel-General Oleksandr Syrskyy, the Military Media Centre has said.
He noted that the fiercest battles continued in the areas of Kremenna, Torske, Bilohorivka and Spornyy.
However, Bakhmut remains the epicentre of hostilities. Fighting for the city continues.
