Russia claims control of 85% of Krasny Liman in Ukraine offensive

Russian forces control 85 percent of Krasny Liman and over 50 percent of Shiykovka, according to Russia's Chief of Staff Army General Valery Gerasimov, cited by TASS.

Gerasimov reported successful operations on the Boguslav and Rubtsovsk fronts. Fighting also continued on the Svyatogorsk line in the Donetsk People's Republic, where Russian forces reported ongoing destruction of Ukrainian formations.

These claims, which cannot be independently verified, reflect Russia's reported operational tempo in eastern Ukraine.
