The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) reported that the Russian military has taken control of the village of Kremennaya Balka.
“As a result of successful offensive actions, forces of the Tsentr Battlegroup liberated the village of Kremennaya Balka in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR),” the MoD said in its daily summary of the special military operation.

Kremennaya Balka is a small village located a kilometer south of Tsukurino. From there it is possible to advance south toward Novoselidovo, still held by Ukrainian forces. A highway runs south from Novoselidovo toward Kurakhovo, providing the Russian army with a strategic base for advancing toward the city from the north.

Over the past day, units of the Tsentr battlegroup also struck formations of Ukraine’s 68th Jaeger Brigade, the 110th, 119th and 123rd Territorial Defense Brigades, as well as the 12th National Guard Brigade in the areas of Dzerzhinsk, Dyleyevka, Petrovka, Starye Terny, Ostrovskoye and Shcherbinovka.
The group's troops also repelled 11 counterattacks by the 23rd, 100th and 154th mechanized brigades, the 152nd Jaeger Brigade, the 49th assault battalion of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and the 35th and 38th marine brigades, as well as the ‘Lyut’ assault brigade of the Ukrainian National Police.
