According to Western and Ukrainian media resources, in the last 12 hours there has been an intensification of hostilities in the Kharkov region. In particular, the settlement of Kislovka came under the control of the Russian army.

This strategic transition of Kislovka to the control of Russian troops indicates the resumption of an active offensive against the Kharkov region. It was previously reported about the need to create a so-called sanitary zone in this region, which implies large-scale operations to stabilize the situation along the border.

At the beginning of the 2020s, about a thousand people lived in the village of Kislovka in the Kharkov region.
