Russian forces struggle to advance on multiple fronts, facing setbacks in Sumy, Kupyansk, and Pokrovsk

Russian forces are attempting advances across all front lines but are failing to gain ground, according to ISW. Russian troops face potential chaos in Sumy due to a new regimental commander, while activity from Russian sabotage groups has decreased near Kupyansk. Infantry losses for Russia have risen significantly on the Pokrovsk front. The report from the Institute for the Study of War also notes Russian efforts to replicate Ukrainian drone tactics and logistical challenges on key fronts.
