Russia claimed another major advance in Ukraine, announcing the capture of Filia village in Dnipropetrovsk region, just 6 kilometers south of Novopavlivka—one of the key fronts of the war. The settlement lies close to the administrative border between Dnipropetrovsk and Donetsk. Ukraine’s General Staff earlier reported 33 Russian assaults across the Novopavlivka front, including Filia, but has not immediately confirmed Moscow’s claim. Meanwhile, the Russian Defence Ministry released footage of its forces destroying a Ukrainian command post in Sumy region using Grad MLRS systems, alongside drone strike visuals. Reports suggest Russian forces have seized 18 Ukrainian villages in the past week, pushing Ukrainian defences further back. This comes as U.S. President Donald Trump extended his deadline for Vladimir Putin to end the war, warning that potential consequences still remain on the table.
